do they sell a kit anywhere? its like a bearing or a bushing on the inside is blown out and its all lose in there... anyway to fix this?

 

The manual steering rack has one bushing inside, it's a breeze to "rebuild." As long as it's off the car that is

 

i think if i remember right, you can only get it at honda

 

order the rack end bushing from honda. You may also want to do your tie rods while in there. If you do You should also get the washers and inner tie rod ends along with some grease for assembly. Search rack end bushing replacement, there are several HOW-TO articles up.

 

 

a manual rack is like 800 at a dealership. they can be repaired but not much fun to remove to do so

 

Rack end bushing is like 8 bucks at Honda, the pinion dust seal according to my local dealership is no longer available.

 

odd, I got a brand new dust seal not long ago from Honda.

 

Care to pick up another one and ship to 19061? Parts dept at my local dealer is full of jerkoffs.

I have a power steering rack from an lx if ne one wants to buy it

I paid that much for the quaife, no deal.

 

Installing a 92 civic manual rack but passenger side (where u screw in the tie rod) has no groove to clamp the boot. What part do I need?

Notice pic below, the groove is there on the driver side to clamp the boot on.

 

I found the answer. I found this on my EK manual rack. It includes the mount bushing and the place to strap down the rubber boot-- all in one. Simple, just couldn't find that piece or a part number in the diagrams above???
