Power steering rack problem

Post by skdub »

Hi there, I have a t25 westfalia Lhd 1990 with power steering .....

The rack is leaking and needs changing/refurb...

Does anybody know if a T4 rack will fit as I have sourced one at an ok price ...

Any suggestions welcome and companies that are reputable for these

I am based in London but will travel

Thx

no it won't fit. Brickwerks sell a reseal kit that you could buy and take to local rebuild place?

Thanks guys,
problem i have is that i dont have any workshop space or garage so dont fancy taking it off at the side of the road and then having to wait for my one to be refurbed whilst van is on stands ..

Might have to find garage to take off van,store van, and then wait for unit to be sent back before refitting,,,

Has anybody had dealings with Power steering services in Greenwich or a company called Autosteer Direct based up in Cheshire ????
