[6pack] Seasons Greetings

[Bud Rolofson]

Dick,

My experience was that the quick ratio steering rack was just enough  
thicker to not clear the crossmember.  I could never get enough  
clearance despite moving almost everything to their limits the  
opposite ways.

At the time it didn't occur to me to loosen the motor mounts and try  
moving the engine back a bit (it only needs about another 1/8 inch for  
the QR steering rack) but I think I may have to try that trick.  That  
was mentioned as a cure for getting fan belts on without removing the  
crossmember.  Too bad I hadn't read that on the list earlier but I may  
try it again before selling QR rack to Marty Sukey.
