Photo: Dan Kalleres - don't overstuff or use too many!
As a nation, we collect a lot of stuff, so it's no surprise that when it's time to sell, we need a place to put all that stuff. Buyers are always interested in a home with more storage. You'll likely never hear feedback that your home had "too much storage". Open storage comes in two basic forms – built-ins and bookshelves.
Built-ins are just like they sound – storage that's been permanently attached to the house (built in). Built-ins are like a furniture bonus for most buyers, so it's important to show them off and let buyers see the added value in your home because of them. Built-ins can be found in many different rooms and can serve different purposes. As a result, let's look at some locations for built-ins and how best to show them off:
Photo: Dan Kalleres - before staging
- Kitchens: Built-ins here could be open storage under a breakfast bar or a built-in cabinet on the wall or in the corner. In a kitchen, you want to display a select few items related to kitchens (cookbooks, storage containers and kitchen-themed knick-knacks). Most shelves should only display one item per shelf. Cookbooks might get stacked vertically (side-by-side) or horizontally (on top of each other). For books, leave at least 50% of the shelf space open if you stack vertically. Stack no more than three books horizontally.
- Dining Rooms: Corner built-ins or built-in cabinets are most common. Again, maximize the potential storage. Limit one larger object per shelf or stack plates or other dining room essentials without overstuffing (overstuffing implies a lack of storage).
- Living Rooms/Family Rooms: Built-ins here are usually associated with fireplaces. Remember to leave at least 50% open space if putting up books. Arrange art objects in ones or threes.
- Home Office: These rooms were designed for built-ins and usually are the focal point of the room. Pops of colorful accessories can help ramp up the look. Make sure not to overstuff shelves with books.
- Bedrooms: Built-ins could be in the form of a built-in desk or storage cabinets. Study-related materials or art objects (like a globe), are good for these. Neatly stored clothing or bedding might work well in a closed cabinet.
Photo: Dan Kalleres - after staging
Bookshelves serve the same purpose as built-ins but aren't permanently attached to the walls. Bookshelves can easily be enhanced to become built-ins by attaching crown molding across the top of bookshelves that are already at or near ceiling-height and attaching them to the walls. Otherwise, bookshelves should be more of a chance to display than to store. If everything is crammed onto bookshelves for storage, it sends buyers a signal that without extra expense, the house doesn't have enough storage. Displaying select objects will have much greater buyer appeal. Remember to display items in ones or threes. There's a psychological reason for their appeal over displaying in even numbers.
If you need to de-clutter rooms first, see this article on de-cluttering first. Pre-pack and store what you don't need or anything that doesn't help your home become more visually appealing. It's been said that every box packed is worth up to $1000 in your pocket, so keep that in mind. If you have too many bookshelves, they can quickly shrink the apparent usable size of the room, so consider removing any excess storage. Obviously, you can't remove the built-ins (without lots of effort and expense).
If your built-ins are in disrepair, you may need to paint or re-stain them and possibly add new hardware. Treat them with the same importance as your kitchen and bathroom cabinets.
If you have a home staging question or would like to share a staging tip, please let me know. Send me a photo of your home staging dilemma and I'll be happy to help!
Home Staging Tip: When stacking books, try to avoid paperbacks and stick with hardcovers. Group them by size (shape) and color whenever possible. You can even put plain, colored book covers over books to create a uniform look with a pop of color. If you display your collection, make sure the subject matter is suitable for anyone that might be touring your home. If you don't have any hardcover books, check with a used bookstore. Look for the cheapest books possible with the right dimensions for your needs and pick up some book covers from a craft store or school supplier. It's far less expensive than going out and buying a bunch of new books just to stage your shelves!

High sprain or not, Forte's status in doubt
September, 17, 2012
Kevin Seifert | ESPN.com
Matt Forte's right ankle injury might not be of the more severe "high" sprain, as Chicago Bears coach Lovie Smith said Monday morning. But to me the team already revealed its concerns about Forte's short-term availability by re-signing veteran Kahlil Bell over the weekend.
If the Bears thought Forte would be ready for Sunday's game against the St. Louis Rams, they probably would not have felt compelled to make a roster move. Backups Michael Bush and Armando Allen are healthy and available for extended duty if necessary, but it's reasonable to think Forte might not play. Smith, in fact, acknowledged Forte was still "sore" Monday morning.
The Bears are scheduled to resume practicing Monday afternoon after a three-day layoff following last Thursday's 23-10 loss to the Green Bay Packers.

African choir gets hot thanks to donation
A small group of boys and girls from Africa are a lot warmer thanks to the generosity of a Hastings business.
A few weeks ago, the Asante children's choir came to Hastings to perform at Calvary Christian Church and the Pinecrest and McAuliffe elementary schools. The choir performed at the church on Nov. 24 and then three days later at McAuliffe. Following those performances, the choir traveled to Burnsville and St. Cloud before returning to Hastings on Sunday, Dec. 1.

Let's swap: Early understanding of social exchange by British and Nepali children
- Paul L. Harris,

- … show all 3 hide
Recent research with adults has suggested that they readily understand conditional rules that include a deontic or prescriptive element. The possibility that young children might also understand such conditional rules when they are embedded in the context of an exchange agreement was explored in three studies. Children 3–7 years of age listened to stories in which two protagonists agreed to an exchange of mutual benefit. Children tested both in Britain and Nepal were accurate in identifying (1) when either protagonist had reneged on the agreement and (2) when both protagonists had kept the agreement. The findings indicate that young children are sensitive to the obligations that stem from an exchange agreement even if it is made between equals rather than imposed by adult authority.

Bryan Bledsoe, DO, FACEP, recently asked in his column why we rarely see vacuum mattresses in the U.S." While American EMS still uses backboards for most spinal immobilization, EMS providers in other countries use vacuum mattresses for this task.
To understand the concept of a vacuum mattress, think of a giant bean bag. A vinyl/nylon body is filled with polystyrene beads (some manufacturers use similar materials). The patient is placed on the vacuum mattress and strapped in. Then providers, through use of the device, pack the beads up against the patient. At least one manufacturer recommends placing a folded towel under the patient's neck to stabilize it if a cervical collar isn't used. After the patient is strapped and packed, the air is removed from the mattress. Straps are readjusted, and you're ready to move or load onto a stretcher.
Some Scientific Findings
A study published in a 1994 British journal hypothesized that using a vacuum mattress would reduce the "incidence of pressure necrosis and the possibility of further neurological compromise." In the study, researchers at Noble's Hospital on the Isle of Man examined the interface pressures between the sacrum, midlumbar spine and various support surfaces: a backboard, a padded backboard and a vacuum stretcher. Sacrum ischemic pressures were much higher on the two backboards than on the vacuum stretcher. An earlier study demonstrated that pressure-wound incidence is higher the longer a patient spends on a backboard. The researchers also felt the total lack of normal lumbar lordosis support from both backboards could lead to further neurological compromise; the vacuum stretcher supported the lumbar lordosis. This was all hypothesis, but worthy of further examination, in their opinion. They also noted that, in 1993, most European countries were using vacuum stretchers, though the UK and North America were not.(1)
Three different studies published in 1996 volumes of the Journal of Emergency Medicine found patients suffered less pain on vacuum mattresses than they did on backboards. Two of the studies found better immobilization with the vacuum mattress; the third only looked at pain experience.(2,3,4)
One of the 1996 studies, "Comparison of a vacuum splint device to a rigid backboard for spinal immobilization," expressed concern about the rigidity of the vacuum mattress: "Even with all the air removed from the device, they are not rigid enough to serve as an extrication device in some situations."(2)
That issue may have been resolved. The Australian manufacturerNeann states in the "Vacuum Splint" section of its Web site that their vacuum mattress "becomes extremely rigid for up to 24 [hours]" after the air is pumped out.
A 2003 study conducted at Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield, UK, compared stability between a backboard and vacuum mattress.(6) The researchers tilted volunteers on each device placed on an operating table from 45 degrees head up to 45 degrees head down, and then tilted them 45 degrees laterally. "The mean body movements in the head up position (23.3 v 6.66 mm), head down (40.89 v 8.33mm), and lateral tilt (18.33 v 4.26mm) were significantly greater on the backboard than on the vacuum mattress," they said.(5)
In case you're thinking the harsh conditions you work under may be too much for a plastic mattress to endure, here are a few points from the British Services Everest Expedition in 1992. A Sherpa fell 100 feet into an ice fall, a sloping face of a glacier that's similar to a frozen waterfall. He had a severe head injury and suspected spinal injuries. Rescuers pulled him out with a sledge stretcher and Stifneck extrication collar from Laerdal Medical and an Evac-U-Splint mattress from Hartwell Medical Corp. During the 48 hours before a helicopter could reach him, the group experienced inclement weather and sub-zero temperatures. The group commander credited the vacuum mattress's polystyrene filling for the fact that the patient suffered no ill effects from the cold.
Some American agencies are using vacuum mattresses, such as the Mount Desert (Maine) ambulance service. On Aug. 18, rescuers from this service used a full-body vacuum splint to rescue a Massachusetts woman who was injured when she fell over a cliff in Acadia National Park and landed on the rocks below.
But although a few U.S. services use vacuum mattresses, these devices are still uncommon in the U.S. Let us know atJEMS Connectwhy you think vacuum mattresses are not as common in the U.S. as they are in other countries. Is it because of the cost or lack of exposure? Or do agencies continue to use backboards because of traditional thinking (such as "this is the way we've always done it").

It's been reported that the Bulls have offered a deal of Carlos Boozer and Nate Robinson to the Raptors for Andrea Bargnani and John Lucas III, available whenever Toronto decides to pull the trigger. However, the Raptors are reportedly not interested in Boozer's $40+ million salary.
According to the Toronto Star:
Yes, there has been chatter about Bargnani-Boozer around here but I'm not sure if it's just people catching up the first one or what.
But my information remains as it was a week or so ago, there is no interest in taking on either Boozer or his more-costly contract.

SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Amedica Corporation, a spinal and reconstructive medical device manufacturer, announced today that the company received a new patent for an artificial spinal disc implant based on its proprietary Silicon Nitride (Si3N4) ceramic material.
Amedica's artificial spinal disc implant is unique in its design, material and construction. This is a distinct differentiation from existing metal-on-plastic or metal-on-metal designs. By leveraging Silicon Nitride, Amedica's artificial spine disc implant has the potential to provide patients with increased longevity of the implant due to lower wear, better osteointegration and reduced infection rates.
"The purpose of this artificial disc is to increase the likelihood that a patient will have longer lasting neck or back pain relief," said Bryan J. McEntire , Chief Technology Officer, Amedica. "Over time existing designs wear and create metal or plastic debris that can cause osteolysis resulting in revisions. By using Silicon Nitride we can significantly reduce wear rates thus improving the longevity of the pain relief."
Amedica is the only company in the world that has the technology and state-of-the-art manufacturing facility to produce FDA-cleared and CE-marked Silicon Nitride implants for the spinal arena. The company's proprietary Silicon Nitride material demonstrates superior new bone formation and resistance to bacterial infection compared to other products used for spinal fusion such as poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) and titanium (Ti).
Amedica is currently looking to expand Silicon Nitride beyond spinal fusion for different types of surgical implant devices such as hip and knee replacements, dental implants and suture anchors. The company recently received 510(k) clearance for a second generation design of its Valeo In

On the Issues
Public Education | Budget | Universal Health Care Access | The Economy | Energy
Public Education
I have spent much of my career advocating for educational opportunity. I began as an advocate for pre-school programs, and most recently have worked in the Statehouse on behalf of the state college system.
Few things are more important to establishing a strong and growing economy than education and training. For businesses, a better trained workforce means more efficient production and more productivity. For workers, more education means higher earnings. For the state, all this means a prospering economy, increased tax revenues, and fewer Vermont families that need assistance from social services.
In order to strengthen our economy and help us get out of the current economic downturn, the state must encourage and support all Vermonters who want to get more education and training
I worked during the last two years to help establish a Pre-K through 16 Council, which will bring together professionals and consumers to coordinate all parts of our education and training system, beginning with pre-school and continuing beyond high school. By integrating the programs we have and finding out what we need to do better, we can help more Vermonters without creating new programs. Strengthening our worker training programs will help our schools and vocational training centers ensure that Vermonters have the skills necessary in a 21st century economy.
It is the role of the legislature to look out for all our citizens, especially when we are in challenging economic times.
The Vermont budget is a reflection of the priorities of our state. Tax dollars support programs that benefit all Vermonters – public safety, building roads and telecommunications networks, providing education, and environmental protection. One of the most crucial functions of government is to protect and support our most vulnerable citizens.
When I chaired the House Appropriations committee, my job was the help the legislature to meet the bottom line while at the same time balancing all of the needs of Vermonters. Just as was the case when we had difficult times in the past, we cannot abandon elders, victims of domestic violence, mentally ill and disabled persons. Cuts to our human services programs will not eliminate the needs of Vermonters, they will just shift the costs onto local communities and create larger expenditures for emergency health care, corrections, and law enforcement. We must not be penny-wise and pound-foolish.
The budget must make investments in strategies which will improve the economic future of the state and lead us to recovery. We all need to share in maintaining vital programs.
Universal Health Care Access
The recently passed national health care law will do very little for Vermont, because we are ahead of the nation in our commitment to universal access to health care. We need to continue efforts on a state level to slow down the rate of increasing costs, and make sure that every Vermonter is insured at an affordable cost. By doing do, we will improve the health of all Vermonters, reduce costs for Vermont families, and strengthen our economy by reducing the burden on employers.
The 2010 Legislature passed a law which will put Vermont on the path to affordability and health insurance for everyone. We will need to continue to work in the 2011-12 legislative session to build the best possible system for our state that will help us reach our goal of universal, affordable health care for all.
The Economy
Vermont's economy has fared better many other states in this economic crisis, but our challenge is still enormous. The state budget must be reduced, and many families are finding it difficult to make ends meet. Everyone in Vermont should be able to have a job with a livable wage, health insurance and the ability to send their kids to college.
I support policies that will support businesses and job creation and will strengthen Vermont's workforce. We need a balanced strategy of job growth and support for existing businesses that employ Vermonters.
A sustainable and responsible energy policy is critical to Vermont's economic development yet must also preserve our environment. We can do more to prioritize energy conservation and lessen the overall demand for fuel. Investments in renewable energy in state buildings can reduce state operating costs and support Vermont businesses.
We need to close Vermont Yankee and make sure that the decommissioning costs will not be borne by Vermont taxpayers. At the same time we must transition VY employees to good jobs in alternative energy and other sectors of the Vermont economy. And we must work to replace Vermont Yankee baseload power with a variety of sources including responsible sited, sustainable alternative energy sources like biomass, hydro and wind power.

Story Review:
Though the movie is incredibly refreshing, it does remind one of Mani Ratnam's classic hit 'Mouna Ragam'. Atlee has added his own dimension to the story, and has served it on an all new platter. The best thing about the film is that it satiates the cravings of every class of viewer and leaves nothing to complain about.
The film is a neat entertainer. The entire team has given this film their best. Atlee, the debutant director has delivered his dream project flawlessly. His strong points seem to be character definitions and screenplay. He has carved his characters with utmost care to perfection and has selected his crew rather cautiously. The movie has three different stories, but the gripping screenplay keeps the audience glued to their seats.
Sathyaraj, Arya and Nayathara stand out with their brilliant acting skills. Although Jai has delivered a flawless performance, it is Arya who walks away with all the glory, thanks to his well scripted character 'John'. Nayanthara portrays her role to the tee, while Nazriya does what is asked of her - look flawless on-screen. Santhanam, Sathyan and Rajendran prove their mettle in both comical and serious sequences. Santhanam raises quite a few guffaws with his quick wit.
The let-downs however are the songs and editing. Given G V's repute, the audience definitely expected something better - something hummable, and something more urban. Though the songs are a disappointment, he has done an excellent job scoring the background music in the first half.
Cinematographer George C Williams and dance choreographer Sheriff deserve a pat on their backs.

If you're looking for a nice, quiet campground, this is it. It's out in the country, and you hear cows and roosters! Unfortunately, its also a drive to do any shopping, Clewiston having the closest WalMart, or Okeechobee for more shopping selection. There is an Indian casino about 10 minutes up the road that has great penny slot machines! Wi-fi was free but kept disconnecting and couldn't get re-connected. About half are permanent trailers. We used PA for 1 week, regular rate for 2nd week. - pandcallen
This park has closed. - Eyes
Very friendly people. Free Wi-Fi. Good Verizon phone. Good over-the-air TV. Price quoted is Passport America. Many permanent trailers. On Canal. Sites facing canal are $5 more. Mailing address is Moore Haven as Lakeport does not have a Post Office. - earlymun

Some of the sites are paved and some are grass-gravel with a paved patio. We were assigned a grass-gravel one probably because were short term (two weeks) or Passport. Not every site has a picnic table but if you ask for one they will bring you one. They had good wifi at my site and it was free when we were here, but starting 2015 they are going to start charging for wifi at the sites. The people working here are very friendly and helpful. - jhav
A very friendly park. We were here for two weeks. Passport America members. My only concern was it is so far away from shopping, a small camp store would have been nice, for milk, eggs and such. Management is super if you have any problems. - User3654
When we called M RV Resort with questions about their Passport America participation. The Park Hostess on the phone was so friendly and nice that we knew we wanted to stay at this park. Our only disappointment was that we were not able to stay here longer. This is a very pretty 55+ park with many snow-birds that return each winter. This park is very dog-friendly and people seem to get along well here. There are lots of planned activities, including skeet shooting, petanque, and visiting musical groups. This park also has a rally area which is good for groups traveling together or meeting up at the park. Nightly rate shown includes the Passport America rate of $18.75 plus tax and a $2.75 energy charge assessed on short-term stays. - GandJ

Over all a nice park. But like most RV parks their web site pictures are not a true representation of what is here. Plenty of things to do here, golfing, driving range, scheduled activities and a marina for the inter-coastal waterway. Our grass site was level but dropped off near the rear causing us to park with our door about 6 feet in front of the cement pad. Park rules do not allow outside mats so tracking grass inside was a problem. We could only use our small outside door mat.
Office personal were nice and were able to recommend a hair salon that did a great job on coloring my wife's hair.
Sites are large and all are back in. Very quiet park with friendly people. Dog friendly and most people abide by the lease rules. No problem with dogs here, very dog friendly.
The only negative - we had two instances of loss of water. Both times fixed quickly. - ETB
It's dirty. Management doesn't seem to know what's going on. It has a restaurant, but it's very expensive. It is on the river, but those lots are all taken so you're a good drive from the water. - Marcus Allison
This RV park is very large, adjacent to a golf course, and it extends to the river. The roads are in good shape and the sites are all back-in (grass), but very large and easy to navigate. Each site has a cement pad and some have picnic tables. The management was nice and helpful and the people in the park were about the friendliest I've ever come across. Pool was down for maintenance, but looks nice. Park was well maintained and there are lots of activities. The only downside was a relative lack of mature trees. Otherwise a great place. - User3319

We kind of enjoyed this park for 2 nights. Inspite of the fact that it is out in the middle of nowhere, rundown and needs upgrading, we had a nice view of the estuary and enjoyed slamming the fish-cleaning house door to attract the large alligators to the dock. Also, a great wetlands bird-watching place. Some of the seasonal people were still there who were very friendly and told us that the park is almost full during season. They have a great clubhouse where they had an ice cream social and a resident bluegrass jam session. We would return for a few nights again if we are ever in the area. - Desertqueensb
Park appears to be For Sale, Very rundown, low voltage power. Laundry all but defunct. Would not step foot in restrooms, let alone use them. No windbreaks makes a very windy park. Could barely see bottom of 4 ft swimming pool. Many, old, rundown RV's in this park. Only hard stand sites are in the parking lot, the rest is sand and gravel. There is no security gate so anyone can drive in. Water pressure is good. Club house but no activities that we could see. Fish cleaning house and boat docks. Park is very isolated with nothing around for several miles. We would not stay here again. It was a reduced rate park through RPI. - retditto

LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Kings weren't happy about the way they played at San Jose in their previous meeting with the Sharks so they focused on improving their defensive effort in the rematch.
Kyle Clifford recorded his first two-goal game in the NHL, and Justin Williams, Jarret Stoll and Dwight King also scored as the Kings beat their Pacific Division rivals 5-2 on Saturday night.
San Jose went more than 11 minutes before getting its first shot on net and fell behind 2-0 in the second half of a home-and-home series after beating the defending Stanley Cup champions 4-3 on Thursday.
"We kind of have that New England Patriots mindset, where we don't want to lose two in a row to them," Clifford said. "We definitely wanted to tighten up defensively -- especially after what happened two nights ago. We knew what our game plan was, and defensive-zone play was right up there.
"We came out with a strong first period, and that kind of put them on their heels a little bit. Then we got it going and took it to them."
Jonathan Bernier stopped 21 shots in the opener of a five-game homestand, including a penalty shot by Tommy Wingels at 7:58 of the second period. Bernier has won six of his seven starts, not counting a 6-4 win over St. Louis that Jonathan Quick got credit for in relief.
Antti Niemi stopped 14 of 18 shots and was pulled by coach Todd McLellan after Clifford scored his second of the game and fourth of the season during a goal-mouth scramble at 13:45 of the second period for a 4-1 lead.
"I've said that about Kyle a lot in the last couple years -- about doing a really good job at certain points of games whether it's a hit, fight, score, backcheck," Kings coach Darryl Sutter said.
Patrick Marleau and Matt Irwin scored for San Jose. Niemi allowed more than three goals for only the third time in 23 starts this season. The other two were against the Chicago Blackhawks, who have the league's best record.
"We had a lot of passengers. So disappointing," McLellan said. "We play against the Stanley Cup champions back-to-back, and we're lucky enough to win one in San Jose. Then we come here, and you've got to think they'll be chomping at the bit and ready to go, and they're going to push you.
"What a great opportunity for our team to test themselves collectively, but also individually."
Clifford scored on the first shot of the game, beating Niemi through the pads from a sharp angle at 2:27 of the penalty-free first period after Slava Voynov faked a slap shot from the high slot and found Clifford in the right circle.
Williams was credited with his fourth goal at 12:19 when he got the rebound of his shot and inadvertently banked the puck into the net off defenseman Brad Stuart while trying to pass it to Dustin Brown.
"If you don't have an 'A' game, you have to have a 'B' game. Some guys had their 'D' game," Sharks captain Joe Thornton said. "At this level, that just can't happen against elite teams. You are finally feeling pretty good about your game and pretty good about the team, and then you take a step back like this."
Marleau got San Jose on the board 35 seconds into the second period with his fifth goal in 22 games, following a season-opening, five-game streak in which he scored nine times.
Brent Burns, who has four points in three games since coming off the injured list and shifting from defenseman to right wing on the Sharks' top line, circled the net with the puck and fed it in front to Thornton, who fanned on the shot. The puck glanced off the skate of Kings forward Anze Kopitar, and Marleau whipped it past Bernier.
"There are going to be rebounds in front of the net, but we have to be able to get there," Niemi said. "I have to be able to try my best to get those to the corners. We have to be able to get back to the net and clear those."
The game marked the NHL debut of Tyler Toffoli, a second-round pick by the Kings in 2010. The 20-year-old center, playing on a line with Jeff Carter and Mike Richards, tried to disrupt a second-period breakaway by Wingels and slashed the blade of his stick while diving for the puck. Wingels was awarded a penalty shot, but Bernier gloved it.
"It would have been nice if Tommy scored. Who knows what would have happened?" Thornton said. "It probably would have been a different scenario."
Stoll made it 3-1 at 11:15 of the second on a short backhand through Niemi's legs. King scored against backup goalie Alex Stalock on a snap shot from the slot at 18:56 of the second for a 5-1 advantage.
Game notes
The Sharks are 28-26-5 with three ties in regular-season games against clubs that were trying to defend a Stanley Cup championship, and 4-8 in the postseason. ... Clifford has 16 goals in 184 career games. ... Clifford's fight with Douglas Murray at 1:27 of the second produced the game's only penalties during the first two periods. Clifford also received an interference penalty with 54 seconds to play, leading to Irwin's power-play goal 4 seconds later. ... The Sharks have scored no more than three goals in 21 of their last 22 games. Thornton has only two during that stretch, after scoring in three consecutive games in late January. Michal Handzus has one goal in 27 games this season, and only three in his last 46 games. ... San Jose began a five-game road trip that goes through Edmonton and Minnesota and includes two games against Anaheim. ... Marleau hasn't scored in his last nine games against Anaheim.

To move from one place to another place, car is the best mode of transport which makes your journey very comfortable. Traveling by a car saves time and energy. So, most of the people like to maintain it properly. To maintain your Isuzu car, you should know at least the basic working of its components. Steering wheel plays the major role for a smooth and safe drive. Smooth working of the manual steering is dependent on other components like steering rack, rack and pinion etc. All the parts works interlinked to deliver quality output. Most of the cars have the power steering technology. But still some of the cars use the manual steering mechanism.
The movement of your car's steering wheel is passed through the steering shaft. The pinion is connected at the end of the steering shaft which transfers the rotational movement to the steering rack. Both the front wheels are connected with the rack. The rack is a metal tube which converts the rotational motion into linear motion. The rack has a tie rod at both the ends which connects the wheel with the help of steering arm. When you turn the steering wheel either left or right, rack helps to move your car wheels according to the steering movement. Thus, steering rack plays an important role in the smooth movement of your Isuzu car. If you find it difficulty to turn the steering wheel, you should check to that issue at the earliest. Otherwise, your car wheels will not response to you immediately.
If you find the problem with the steering rack, you need to replace it to have a smooth driving experience. At Car Parts Warehouse, you can find your required car parts at affordable price. We provide OEM and aftermarket parts at a discount price. All our car parts are tested for their quality to meet the industry standards.
