MetalicMan Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Hi guys!I own a 1.5 deck, and so my friend, and we both have the same problem...Steering rack loosing steering fluid... He has just payed 210€ for full rebuild his own!-Anyone has/had this problem on their MA/MB??-Anyone has a solution?? As rebuild isn't cheap, and also 2nd hand ones must have also this problem in short time.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetalicMan Posted October 26, 2011 Author Share Posted October 26, 2011 minw is keaking fom the end sealwould like to get a seal and fix it myself 2me too, but Honda would't sell repair kit for these racks... I guess the most easy thing would be swap the rack for a EG one witch is fully rebuildable with independent seals and parts...Anyone has ever put a eg steering rack into a MB??I know DC2 would also fit, but EG would be more common, and more cheap..

Didjeridave Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I'd also be really interested if the seals could be bought & replaced - perhaps there's more chance if there's a group/bulk purchase? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
