penyghent Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) Has anyone got an A series complete rack for sale, or knows which other one will fit please. Edited February 20, 2021 by penyghent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessopia74 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 A bit of a guess, but maybe Kadett/chevette one might be the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard33 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I had seen one fairly recently on Ebay for sale in Ireland, it was used and the shipping charges were a little high. So that might be an option for you to take a look at I hope that helps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard33 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 The steering rack is still on there: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Opel-Manta-A-Series-Steering-Rack-Rhd-Rare-Mk1/274668445604?hash=item3ff383dfa4:g:y-YAAOSwkuxf~K7H It looks like it would probably need to be fully overhauled based on the photo as it looks quite rusty on the steel parts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penyghent Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 Cheers, that was my thought to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rutts Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Manta b fits you just need to cut down the arms to the hubs and thread the ends about 30mm. You have easier option for a quick rack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
611 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Easy enough to refurb. Got a whole lot of bits to do mine from Opel GT Source http://www.theopelproject.com/steering-rack-reconditioning/ I also have a NOS rubber boot (only 1 unfortunately) if you do need one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessopia74 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 How much shorter is the body to that of the MantaB rack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
