Sierra Steering rack - 'dust cap' ?
I am in the process of putting my steering rack back in the car after having changed to a 2.7 ratio.
I have cleaned off the old paint and going to treat it to a fresh coat of Hammerite. However, there is what appears to be a 'dust' cap
that I guess should be a nice snug fit on the rack, covering the pinion retaining nut and pinion. Mine is a very loose fit and has started to
crack.
Can these be purchased new? Or does anyone have one lying around.
It is the do-nut shaped item on the diagram below near the pinion

Mine was just the same, dumped it, and had no problems in nearly 10K of miles traveled. HTH Ray
To make a car go faster, just add lightness. Colin Chapman - OR - fit a bigger engine. Chippy
