More troubles.. this time steering

1

When it rains it pours! Having just fixed my dist rotor arm problem, I then find my power steering rack is leaking on the left-hand side. Oh joy..


So, does anyone here have, or know where I can find, a second-hand, rebuilt or new rack?


Part #252-422-061, RHD power steering rack for 1992 T3 Syncro 2.1L


Failing that, does anyone know of a good place (preferably in WA) that would rebuild it?


Thanks in advance,

Gaetan

Euroking motors in Mandurah, South African guy, works on my syncro and fixed things instead of changing parts.  He used to be involved with rally Africa and the support vehicles were synchros.

So if anyone needs any power steering work done in WA (Perth area), I can highly recommend Lucas at LPSR.
He quoted $450 to rebuild by steering rack which was leaking badly. I got a seals kit from JustKampers in the UK (AUS was almost twice the price and out of stock), and Lucas did a sterling job super quickly and even replaced both boots at no extra cost. All completed within 48h of me dropping it there.
Proper service at the proper price, and with a smile to boot.

He also specialises in mods and conversions, if you’re looking to change the number of steering wheel turns from lock to lock.
