Heys guys well today I failed my WOF turns out I need a new Left hand rack end.
If anybody has a spare one or knows where I can get one could you please tell me it will be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Im located on the North Shore and will travel Auckland wide or can arrange postage for delivery.
Left Hand Rack End
I'm guessing that a rack end is the same as a tie rod end (someone correct me if I'm wrong). You can pick them up from Repco or a suspension parts shop or somewhere like that. Not expensive, around $20?
I think I've a box for one somewhere but I can't find it. I doubt you'll find one that says it's for a City, the one I bought was for a Civic somewhere around that era.
It's a pretty easy job to replace it, things to be aware of are the thread is backwards, you need to count the number or rotations it takes to get it off (so that the new one goes back in exactly the same place), and that ideally you should use some sort of ball joint remover rather than just a hammer.
Hope this helps.
