TitaniumTT will become famous soon enough
I welded it while at it's resting position. There was ALOT of tension keeping it in one place and required a decent amout of torque (although I had 0 leverage) to get it to move one direction or the other. I just welded it where it layed.

I've done this modification also. I recommend it to anyone who attempts to remove the power steering.

The hardest part for me was finding someone in my area who can weld aluminum. Otherwise everything was very simple and literally you take it apart in said order, then put it back in said order. Simple

I've got a welded 15.2:1 rack and I love it. I daily drive it on 17x8, 30mm offset wheels and 225/45/17 high performance tires and I recently did 2 days at the track with 15x9, 20mm offset wheels and 225/50/15 race tires and it was fine as well. I don't mind it at all and I quite like the feel and speed of it, but I'm also a 6'3" tall Rugby forward, so a little effort doesn't bother me.
