hey, i don't have the steering hooked up yet... i had planned on using a couple of universal joints until i got my 2jz motor. now i'm going to be installing the rack and pinion from a supra or rx7, and eliminating the strut suspension of the truck for a regular upper and lower comtrol arm. oh, i also narrowed my rearend by 4".
