405 steering rack gator
Discussion
Hiya, just found this forum, hopefully someone can help. I`ve had my Pug 405 diesel for 8 years with no major problems. My steering rack gator is split, I`ve been informed that to replace it I will have to strip the rack . I managed a repair for the MOT, but now it really needs replacing, any ideas as I don`t really want to put it in a garage as it`s my daily runaround. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hiya Lee, tried one of those, as the piston on the rack moves in and out whilst steering, the boot stretches then contracts breaking the glued joint. I wondered if a gator/boot can be heated so it can be stretched over the spigot on the end of the piston? I see you are a marshall at Castle Coombe, do you know of a guy who drives a green tvr Chimaera who I believe is a marshall or something to do with track safety?
