Hey people,

Just got the van back from the MOT, looks like I need to replace the power steering pump ( leaking for about 3 years but they've pulled me up on it this time) and replace the steering rack(leaking)! I'm told that the pump shouldn't be to difficult to find but the rack is a wee tad of a problem, not least the cost of the fecker. So do I get the leaky one reconditioned? If so where??

Its a 84 LHD petrol (US import if that means anything).

Amongst other things the exhaust has blown pretty bad so if anyone has got one, i'm a buyer!

ARGGGH! Cheers brains!

spoke to them the other day - £150 plus postage (they arrange collection and delivery) - takes 48 hours-ish

my experience with western not good
Martin Red Westie has found a better company but I've gone and deleted the pm he sent me recently, he'll be along shortly
they are available new from germany still but not cheap
also PC52 in the syncronauts has a completre diesel lhd ps set for sale quite cheap

another option. They do the LT so I'm sure they could help.
