MOT is due in June, Im doing some pre-checks and I am suspicious of the stering rack, the U/Js look ok.

In case it fails, any advice on where to get a new or recon rack from?

Cheers

Early ones I think are Land rover but newer ones are TVR specific, so depends what year you have so probably Re-con is better. Ring you local dealer they will probably put you in touch who will recon them for you.

All of them are TVR specific.

Fraid not.. having replaced a 93 rack, and got another rack in the shed for my 97 they appear to be TVR only. I'd vote for a re-condition of the existing one too

As Land Rover used recirculating ball steering in its 4x4 and not rack and pinion... Or was it peg and worm gear?
