Steering rack rubber gaiters/ boots - Rich Hanlon - 28 Jun 2009

Hi folks,

Does anyone have a cross-match for the rubber gaiters/ boots/ bellows on the steering rack that go from the adjustable section to the fixed section? Mine are starting to perish so wanted to try to track down a replacement fairly soon...

They look to be fairly universal BL/ Rover group ones, to my amateur eyes??

Thanks all,

Rich

The closest match I found was a Ford Capri. (Romac sell universal kits too)

I haven't got the part no's to hand but I posted them yonks ago on the Yahoo forum.

I'll dig 'em out for you...

Thanks all!

I had a universal Maxi/ Princess/ Allegro one in which is correct on the narrow and wider diameters, but is a bit longer than the DMC ones and I think the bellows would rub on the frame...
