I don't know if you are fixed up yet but I have a standard Escort MK2 rack which has done about 100 miles before I upgraded to a quick rack. It was a remanufactured rack bought from TMS motor spares probably about 5 years ago but is in good condition. No track rod ends as I moved these over to the new rack.

I think it cost me something like £45 but I'd take £25 for it if you are interested.

I live in Kilmarnock but work in Glasgow by the way.

Let me know.

Craig.

Hi Andy,

I work in Hillington so probably best bet would be to meet up one lunchtime next week somewhere between Hillington and Houston. Probably around 1pm would suit me best. Any suggestions on an easy to find meeting place? I've never been to Houston but I've been to Arnold Clark Ford in Linwood before and I know the retail park just off Junction 27 at Paisley. I don't mind dropping it off at your house either so let me know what suits best. Monday or Tuesday should be okay for me, let me know what suits.

Cheers,
Craig.

Hi Andy,

Sorry I forgot to reply back at the weekend. I know the Burger King you are talking about and can meet up this lunchtime if you get this message in time. If not then I can meet up tomorrow or probably any other day this week.

I'll U2U my mobile number - just send me a text (in office so might not be able to answer a call) if you get this message and let me know when you want to meet up. I've got the steering rack in the boot of my car anyway.

Cheers,
Craig.
