    Got my goodies from Summit a few days ago, hopefully there will be a front end kit arriving this week. Was going to buy local and get the RRS rack, but even with the exchange rate against me and nearly $300 in Australian duty and tax when it landed here it still came in about $400 cheaper than RRS and it comes with the pump and braided lines that RRS does not

    Is that rack built for a direct fit to a Maverick? Very nice looking set up :thumbs2:

    Yeah its unisteer, according to the instructions it's not to hard, needs smaller starter motor some hooker headers, streering shaft needs the end cut off and it bolts to where the cross bar under the engine used to be. But I'm sure it will not be as simple that.

    Anything you can think of to regain the 5-6 degree turning radius back?
