Title: Front end bushes and bits?
Post by: Tweaker on August 12, 2008, 01:23:20 PM

My steering rack is in need of a rebuild. Does anybody know if this same rack was used by any other type of vehicle as I need to track down parts. I went tinto Pedders for a front end check and I got a list of  parts that need replacing, but they can only supply a few. I have seem a lot of rebuilds on this site so the parts must be available from somewhere.

 Any help would be awesome!

Hi There,

There's a joint in Aussie www.bac.com.au who are suppliers of Superflex from the UK, (though says it's all made is Aussie?!?!) who do the full set of bushes (front & rear) for CF's. Attached is a PDF Catalogue just on the Bedford Range.  www.superflex.co.uk/

The prices weren't as high as they are shown either!
Hope this helps.

Joel

I took two racks to a steering guy and he put the best bits in one rack. Feels fine to me but the missus hates driving it.
