Dastone;
With the wider tires, 1800ES steering effort IS fairly high, and a worn steering box can make steering even more "interesting", but it is a classic design, not consisting of any more components than it has to (and like countless other cars of the period also have) and perfectly adequite (you can keep your rack and pinion...which DONT perform particularly better and often need replacement at 100k miles!). Please elaborate on "Rube Goldberg", which suggests there are uneccessary bits there!
Cheers
