Description
Another Moss Exclusive. When we found that the steering racks on the market had steering shafts that came out at the wrong angle, we set out to have new racks made that could be installed properly. We worked closely with a steering rack manufacturer for over a year, providing original samples and test fitting pre-production samples. The new racks come to us sealed- they are permanently lubricated with lithium grease and therefore do not need to be serviced. However, simply offering the racks is not enough. Because the proper installation of the steering rack is safety critical, Moss offers a kit consisting of the steering rack, plus alignment tools and adjustment shims for the rack. The early kit 453-618 is correct for all chrome bumper MGBs. Although not required for the 62-66 MGB, the alignment tool is absolutely required for 1967 and later MGBs to properly align the rack pinion shaft with the steering column. For the rubber bumper cars, we offer a similar kit, 453-638. Complete instructions covering the installation and alignment are included. For a shop that has already has the alignment tool, we offer the steering racks by themselves.
Check out 453-638 for the steering rack assembly with an installation kit.
Note: These assemblies are factory lubricated with lithium grease (not oil as were the originals). They are sealed, and are not meant to be re-lubricated.
