Fitted the steering rack well nearly, however I have come across a problem.
The gear linkage rod (1) pivots on a ball stud on the steering rack, whilst trying to re-engage the ball stud into the nylon type socket (4) the nylon socket has disengaged from the gear linkage rod.
My problem now is how do I re-engage the socket onto the rod. I can't get any clamps or anything to assist, just no room to locate the socket. So I think I need to remove the linkage from the car.
Does anyone know how linkage is removed, I fear that the only way is extracting it from the tunnel via the engine bay, this would mean I have to remove the engine.??
Any advice/ideas welcome.
