RHD Power steering rack just refurbed but blowing seals....

Post by spanishfly »

Does anyone happen to know if the main power steering body tube from a LHD ZF rack can be used to replace a RHD ZF rack body? They look to be the same part? If indeed that's the culprit?
Also any ZF specialist recomendations  for someone who could attempt to make a functioning Right using a donor Left please?
