Hi... I have joined up especially to ask about the D1-Spec Quick release steering systems that many people here appear to have used.
I have one simple question. Do you trust them... With your life??? Clearly you do so this might be a silly question, but I just wanted to hear it from someone who uses one.
I am in the process of buying a Rage buggy.. Its got no power steering and as such the steering is going to be direct and heavy... I want to put a removable wheel for security and this type would be ideal...
But if I am honest, I don't trust it.. I don't trust it because of all of the different 'copies' on Ebay, some of which sell for less than £20. Some even say "Sparco" on them, but are blatantly not. So I just worry about putting something like this on a car if its not 100% safe.
In contrast I can spend an extra £50 and buy a 'proper' quick release setup, but that requires welding and in truth, I don't trust that either.
Is there anything you can tell me which might re-assure me?
Could you imagine one ever failing? Are they solid (and I mean really solid).?
Thanks in advance for anything you can offer.
Jon
