sounds cheap enough, probly just reshimmed the track arms. Can't have been much for 25 quid. It's alright as long as the rack bushes aren't worn out or the track arms, can't be owt new in there for that money

Jaygee have been around for years - Spring Road Bilston Nr Wolverhampton

Steering and Suspension specialists (proper Old Skool repairers and not just "fit new" bolt on bolt off merchants)

Excellent for refurbing steering rack or steering boxes etc

They charged me £20 7 years ago to strip check and replace worn bushes on my MKII Escort quick rack

quite, you don't have to replace with new all the time, but if the track rods are worn they're worn, same as the bushes in the rack. If you're lucky it's just a bit of play which you can reshim, i.e. take shims out, if not then new parts have be acquired and fitted.

Not hard on a MkII rack, but everything's got it's life and when gone beyond it it's usually major repair or chuck and fit new, the track rods aren't dear but should cost £20 alone

Wonder if they stock racks for MK1 Escorts ? Having major problems sourcing one for my Mex
