Drove it for about a hour tonight and so far so good. I need some wood if I plan on getting it on the driveway cause the front valance hits before I'm even close to the concrete curb. Joys of a ground huggers.
The thing drive like a tank on steroids though compared to the kids civic lol.

Adjusted font and back suspension. Total drive time is about 1 hour and the steering rack is leaking in the same spot as before. Passenger side on the steering shaft seal. I'm at a loss. I hoping to pop out the seal in there now with pressure to see what happened there. Other then that I washed it and the kids car.

Well crap I dunno what to do. The steering rack doesn't leak when running and pressured up. Pours fluid out when its not running.

That's what I was reading in on the supra forums. I tool the canister off and cleaned it good and there was no restrictions in the return screen. I put some lucas rack stop leak in ther and hope for the best I guess. Next is the 5.0 foxbody rack. Manual steering

Guess I should post a update here. My last issue was a leaky rebuilt steering rack which I was able to fix with some of that lucas oil power steering stop leak stuff. It actually worked and hasn't leaked a drop since adding it.

Then got the rims repainted and went to town with the clay bar and hand polished it. Turned out pretty peachy. Could use the second stage of polish but ill think ill do that next year. Been driving it on the weekends. Pretty to car to drive
