Just found loads of play in my steering rack, which is why it didnt go in a straight line at Avon the other day. Trouble is mk1 racks are NLA so what do people recommend? I seriously doubt it! |

I recommend fitting another rack or fixing the one you have. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

I would definately pull your one apart and have a look, chances are repairing that will be better than a recon one,

Eratalon = Nylon ??? If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

I actually made a couple of these years ago from delrin, never got round to fitting them though, think I binned them in the end. On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:

Going OT slightly, what normally wears in a steering rack to require replacement?

Bin the rubbish ratio MK1 rack, fit a quick rack, but remember to change the steering arms or you'll defy Mr. Ackerman. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:
