Hi guys, my 87 Westy's power steering fluid disappears without a trace, neither at the pump, the hoses or the valve housing. According to Bentley, this looks like a leak of the steering rack seal and "the leaking fluid is found inside steering gear boot". Now - what is the steering gear boot??? I apologize for my still limited command of the English language. How can I make sure that this is the problem before I order a rebuilt rack from Bus Depot or another dealer? Will I have to have the weels realigned when I exchange the rack? Does it make a difference if I keep or exchange the tie rods with the rack? Does the rebuilt rack come with the valve housing or without? If it comes without the valve housing or do I have to order additional parts like seals etc.? Thanks for your answers! Have a great Labor Day weekend! Regards Chris 87 Westy -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net
