The indy failed its MOT on the following

excessive play in front nearside lower ball joint

offside steering rack gaiter split

i have never changed either of these pats, could someone point me in the right direction for sourcing these parts and a guide on how to change, i'm thinking i should i get a sierra haynes manual?

I don't know what the indy uses but fleabay is quite a good place for ball joints and you can get gaiters on there too or from tifosi. HTH
