Title: Free Steering Rack and Seat Slides
Post by: TopNotch on September 21, 2020, 08:50:26 pm
The slow cleaning of my garage is continuing, and I have found the following, free to a good home. No shipping -- you must come and get it, or I can take it to RFTH or the next meeting.

84-87 steering rack, complete with damper, tie rod ends, and steering shaft. Everything feels tight -- no play.


Driver side seat slides in good condition.

I can't tell from the pic.  Is there one rubber bushing on that rack?

I'm curious.  Is there a grease fitting on that steering shaft?  If so, that's probably something that's been overlooked and underserviced for 35 years.

Not sure what you mean -- there's a tie rod end ball joint on each end

The mounting bushing just a bit to the center from the bellows.

No grease fitting.

Both mounting straps with the associated rubber parts (bushings?) are there.
