Thanks,
I didn't think it was. If it was a Flaming River rack I wouldn't be having this problem.
How does the u-joint keep from coming off if it gets loose on the full splined shaft (no flat)? Thanks again, Jerry

Dear Jerry,
Sorry, but this is not a Flaming River rack,as the Flaming River logo is not stamped on the rack,plus the fact that our racks are splined all the way around on the input shaft(no "flat"),and there would be a dust cover over the input shaft seal.

Thank you for your response.
My rack was sold to me as a Flaming River rack on my invoice. There is no stamping on my rack.
I have attached a picture of the pinion shaft. I don't know if you can tell from the picture if this is a Flaming River rack. I purchased the rack and pinion in May of 2006.
I'm in the process of trying to solve this issue with my vendor.
Thanks for your time,
Jerry

Dear Sir,
All of our racks will be stamped "Flaming River" on the housing by the pinion shaft.
If it is our rack,and the input shaft needs to be replaced, the rack will need to be sent back into us to replace the shaft,as we do not send parts out for our products due to liability reasons.

Hello,
Is there any way to identify your steering racks? I have one that has a 9/16" x 26 spline shaft that is .012 undersize. Can this shaft be replaced? There is too much play, even after tightening u-joint.
Thank you.
