Default Re: Recirculating Ball

My other car is a Dodge Spirit with rack and pinion but I don't detect a whole lot of steering difference between the Spirit and Crossfire (and my version of the Spirit is very much a sports sedan). The Crossfire steering is a little dead when the wheel is centered, otherwise they feel about the same. However, in the Spirit every little street imperfection gets transmitted through to the steering wheel. Considering how stiff the suspension is on the Crossfire, especially the SRT-6, and those low profile tires; can you imagine how annoyingly the steering wheel would jolt when driving? I'll take a little loss of road feel for a better steering wheel experience any day.
