I believe this refers to the quick racks or replacement racks made offshore=
 (Argentina maybe) that racers have used and had failures. If yours is orig=

Subject: [TR] Moss Steering Rack Security Mount

Recently called to my attention is an allegation by Moss Motors that a safe=
ty condition can exist with TR4 thru TR6 steering racks. Spitfire, too.  Th=
ey have designed a kit to correct the potential problem. 

I've been driving my TR4A 30 years and have never had the problem nor heard=
 of it.  The kits are 667-293 and 667-296.  
Kit Instructions were written in June 2015, so this is a recent discovery.

What's the group's collective experience?

The issue is with the replacement racks from Moss, not the original
ones.<br><br>

George;

Looking at the Moss site, I must say their write-up doesn't make
it clear (to me) whether the kit is for the stock rack or their
"Quick Rack".  What does the group make of the Moss write-up?
Or is it simply a fix cars without solid mounts?
