M8 I share ur pain trying to find a manual steering rack, here are a few pointers when deciding what to do.

Firstly get it fully reconditioned by a reputable company (with warranty) make sure the boots are clamped on with steel clips (not cable ties) make sure ur ball joints have no or little movement.

I have been stung getting a steering rack by both the wreckers (claimed steering rack in good cond) and the mechanic who recond the rack with cable ties and the ball joints were not replaced (F/R shot and F/L on the way out) $600 later with parts and labor I am going to have to buy a second handy and get that one fully recond with warranty and kiss goodbye my previous $600.

Do it right the first time and save ur $$$$$.

Hope that helps............

Cheers WayneO........................

I have a complete 1988 L series in Melbourne with non-power steering.

First thread post 2010 - up for deletion I'd say.

Yup this is the one I just had done, got back to Kalbarri and put it up on ramps and had a good look underneath and F/R Ball joint is RS, which all in all is no big deal except I paid ok $ to have it done right the first time and expect to have a safe ride home.

Change of pace here, caught up with Bennie during his quick visit to Kalbarri and mentioned I might be interested in a trip to S.A, his ears pricked up and seemed somewhat interested in a lifted L Series run, who knows might be able to sway him to pop over and spend a few days in S.A.

Someone please stop this auto bump.

Real requests can be covered in real threads I'm sure.
