Electric Power Assist Steering Conversion

The FRPP Boss 302r is the absolute best rack out there.  "Best" being subjective according to use.  It is difficult to make the case for a road course biased $1300+ steering rack unless you are seriously racing.  

After that the 2012-13 Boss rack has wonderfully responsive software and seems to be the highest performing OEM production rack for these cars.  

All 2011-14 GT/GT500/v6 racks will have the same software with the only difference being the steering limiters installed.  

Avoid 2011 steering racks unless they are known to have the up-to-date software from Ford.  The early racks had nibbling issues in sweeping corners which causes the steering wheel to shake under a load.  Most of these racks are not on the road or have been updated so the chance of accidently ending up with one is low.  Unfortunately, this software cannot be updated once the rack is removed from the donor car, they can only be flashed in a vehicle originally equipped with EPAS.

We have customers using racks from eBay, LKQ, Detroit Axles, and automotive recyclers like Wade's Motorsports (found on eBay). The key here is to find the best condition rack for the best price while having a return policy that is reasonable.

Do not worry about sellers who mention programming, all remanufactured EPAS racks are preprogrammed from the factory. They do not lose or overwrite this programming. it is permanent.

The reason retailers will mention wheel diameter is because the racks utilize spacers (called limiters) to keep the wheels from crashing into the lower control arm.  These limiters can be purchased separately and added as needed.

It is better to shop for condition and mileage than the mentioned wheel size considering these limiters can be added or removed as needed.

This mounting point is not needed, Ford later removed it entirely from the s550 cars.  We have tested this in the most extreme conditions possible racing on closed course racetracks.  To this day the same racks in the same cars are out there crushing lap times with massive 19x11.5 wheels shod in the stickiest slicks.  Zero issues.

Countless installations in daily driven cars continues to show just how robust this system really is.

If you have an aftermarket K member this mount point will be present and of course makes sense to use.  However, there is no need to modify your stock K member to add one.

We have customers using racks without mode select in every aspect of motorsports and daily use.  With That being said add-on Mode Select modules are available in the store!
