It would seem that way. This is useful to know and I'll add to the parts list. DG sell these and maybe Exactly TVR also do them? You could probably get them made without too much hassle. The drop lin

Indeed. As I said previously, the failures are caused by massive lateral loads when putting the steering on full or near full lock. DO NOT do it! It is not a Taxi but has the lock of a Taxi! Most/all

Use the forward most holes for the steering rack. Adrian Venn does a much better rack than standard which combats the nasty inherent Vixen bump steer. Use the rear holes for mounting an oil cooler sh

This is correct: bump steer is cured by moving the rack vertically. Could there be differences in frames??? I doubt it at least the chassis are the same for various Vixens where the rack mounts but t

I don't think that the chassis broke but that they rear uprights failed and/or the quill shafts snapped. Either event would have been inconvenient. Regards, JU -- Dr John Upham, The UKMotorSport Ind
