Hello,

I would also like to upgrade my steering on my Manco deuce, I do not know what type it has now but I think I want Rack n Pinion... How much would this cost and what should I be looking for?

Thanks!

Bolting a rack&pinion into the buggy is the easiest part, figuring out the geometry is going to give you a little trouble.

rack and pinion?

Well, did you find something? gokartsrus sells a few with good prices, but theres no pictures, or descriptions. And when doing mods, its good to at least see what you are buying, as well as knowing how much travel it has, how you can bolt it up, etc...

I'm also looking for a setup. When I'm trail riding, if one of the front wheels hits a bump, its quick to throw the wheels one way. Very hard to keep a grip on the steering wheel. I can also go from full left to full right in about 1/2 a turn, which is not good. too touchy.
