Is it a big job to change the steering rack? Its a non power steering...

Since its gona be used for road rallies...should i take the oppertunity to buy a quick rack? Would that be better?

Yeah. Goes from the wheel side, to the front, then to the other side then back to the wheel.

One half here, just above the dampers....
