Installing manual rack into 99 Ex Coupe...issues with steering joint
I am trying to install a manual rack into my 99 Ex Coupe, I am using part #53040-S04-A01.
BOX, STEERING BOX
53040-S04-A01
96-00 CX 3DR
96-97 DX 3DR
96-97 DX 2DR
Everything bolted up fine, and it seemed to go without a hitch, but the steering joint is too large to fit over the shaft that comes out of the rack. You can flip it around and the end that goes on the column shaft fits. Do they make a joint that is 3/4" on both ends that will allow me to both this up, or do I need to buy another column? I am trying to get away from the power rack because this is in a race car. I have swapped out the D16y8 for the F20B 2 liter ( blue top JDM engine).

That will allow me to use my steering column that is in the car, and the new rack? Any other changes or should this do it? Thanks for your feedback
