Can I ask where you sourced parts for the steering rack / tie rod rebuild? Cheers continuous1 (149) • 8:28 pm, Wed, 4 Feb

Ebay for tie rods and ball joints. the plastic bush that fails in end of rack i machined a brass bush repacked with grease and boots were generic cut to size ones. You can replace bush without complete disassemble or removal if thats your fix. Just take off tie rod and slide out. Pays to strip and clean them tho adventure321 (186) • Wednesday, 4 February 2026
