oldbutnotslow Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 How can you tell a standard rack from a 8% or from a 22% ? Im looking for identification nubers/marks etc. Grant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelspeed Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Used to be colour coded, 8%, RHD, standard track was painted green, 22%, RHD, standard track was painted black. Others, LHD and wide track were other colours, forget which was which off hand, the parts CD Rom has a list. Nowadays they all seem to be black. So I guess if it's green it's 8%, RHD, standard track if it's black then it could be anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbutnotslow Posted November 14, 2004 Author Share Posted November 14, 2004 I believe that "recent " cars have the 8% rack fitted as standard. Mine is incredibly twitchy on the road and was wondering if it could be a 22% Grant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrino Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 My standard rack (aka 0% or Metro rack) didn't have CATERHAM lettering on it and didn't have grooves for the rack mounts to site on. This should help you identify if it is the older version. Lobbying Caterham for a new badge.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberts Wallet Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I thought it was the other way round. Black was 8%, green was 22% Blue and Carbon 6 Speed Supersport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Walker Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 They are now identified by a coloured disc that sits between the pinion bearing and the cast ali body of the rack, purple is the uprated 22% don`t know the other colour codes sorry.
