My car indicated a previous broken pin (lower, driver).  How?  There was a 
hole cut in the crossmember to thread out a broken pin bolt with channel 
locks!  Then to compound things the assumed second pin was bent.  Of course 
the broken steering rack arm with a "welded on" Alpine thread and tie rod 
end was a unique "upgrade." Floating ball joints and self off-centering 
steering U-Joints rounded out this "safety feature" that kept one from 
falling asleep at the wheel. To add more attentive free play in the steering 
the pinch bolt was loosened to meet maximum specs.

All rebuilt now. Logan and Crawley modifications were added with Derek White 
sourced lower pins from Africa.
