Ive been looking at them recently, there used to be cheap ones (<$100) on ebay. I found one the other day, but dont have the scratch anymore. Apparently, mustang II racks can be modified to fit as well. They are some fraction wider at the mounting points and can be made to work with some offset bushings and a little creative cutting. I'm not sure I'm brave enough to try.man has anyone looked at the price of manual racks these days!?!?!? the cheap ones from car steering.com are just as much as flaming river and unisteer now. WTF
yea if im going to be cutting on my K member i'll just go to a pinto rack and drop my motor a tonIve been looking at them recently, there used to be cheap ones (<$100) on ebay.

Here's the one I was looking at on eBay for the fox:

I don't think it was the K member they cut, it was the bushings. I ran across a thread on Corral when I was looking to see if a mustang II rack would fit.yea if im going to be cutting on my K member i'll just go to a pinto rack and drop my motor a ton
The link I posted is a regular 79-93 manual rack if you don't wanna mess with some frankenstein stuff. $115.humm... lemme look into that
pretty sure they only have them for a stock style fox racks then the pinto racks.... they have the stiletto rack K members also but they wont make one of them till you prove you have a rack.i know racecraft makes a k for the mustang II rack, but this is the first ive heard of fitting one on a stock-style mount. in for details, since i was just going to do the summit rack kit which is in the $380 neighborhood.
What's the Cliff notes version of the end goal with the Mustang II rack?
...and why are you even considering a manual rack?
For some reason I thought pinto and m2 where the same? They were the same platform right?pretty sure they only have them for a stock style fox racks then the pinto racks.... they have the stiletto rack K members also but they wont make one of them till you prove you have a rack.
yes... but they had some differences.For some reason I thought pinto and m2 where the same? They were the same platform right?
What did you end up going with?welp picking up the manual rack and bump steer kit after work today.
