Strange steering rack.
#1 Strange steering rack.
Hi, I have started to dismantle my second hand rack having found some play in the passenger end. On taking it apart it doesn't look like any of the pictures and diagrams I've seen to date. I can't see where the bronze bush would fit.
Anyone seen one like this?

Doesn't look like any rack I've seen. Could it be a home made jobbie?

Hi
Possibly someone has made a replacement for the bronze bush if I could see the pinion side of the rack it would help determine if it were genuine E Type as new replacements were being sold which were based on MGB units. Obvious differences in the pinion area and the ratio.

Pat
