91 164 L Steering rebuild in progress....

Folks,

The long postponed steering rebuild is in full swing.

Steve's "Rosso" thread has proved invaluable.

I don't know how one could possibly remove the steering rack without dropping the sub-frame.

Cardisc is absolutely no help in this regard.

With the engine six inches lower the rack bolts and pipes etc are easily accessible.

I realize now that I should probably have flushed the old fluid before I started by running the engine with one of the pipes undone.

Is there a way to flush the steering pump now that the engine is lowered?

I am confident the fluid is all new as it leaked out so fast I was topping up weekly with about a quarter pint.

I would like to do the job properly though and flush it all out if possible.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Ta,

Neville.
