#1 steering rack

Post by baganz.sven@web.de » Wed Apr 19, 2017 6:46 pm

Hi forum members,

I'm looking for a company to repair my steering rack. :wrench:
E Series 3 LHD.

It has a lot of play and doesn't turn smoothly.

Can someone recommend a company?
I just found Kiley - Clinton Engineering Ltd. in the internet.

I'm happy I you could give me some advice.

Thanks and best regards

Sven :helpsos:

Hi Sven,

Your search has found a good source. Kiley Clinton reconditioned my rack eight years ago and no issues.

Kind regard,

Kevin

I have used Quality Remanufacturing in Paterson, NJ . Great shop. Its where every other vendor sends their stuff to be overhauled. Quick also.

Recommend Kiley Clinton once more
Series 1 FHC purchased 40 years ago. Courted my wife in it.
Series 1 2+2 when the kids were small now sold.
Series 1.5 OTS in opalescent maroon, Californian car. My retirement present.
