STEERING RACK (LEFT HAND DRIVE From 1989 except Continental T) (UR71817R)

  • Part Number: UR71817R
  • Suitable for: 1988-98 (From VIN 24497 onwards)
  • Condition: This is a reconditioned part, sold on an exchange basis so a core unit surcharge will apply

This is a LHD Bentley round bracket mounted steering rack. The website will automatically add the tab washer SPM1279P which normally needs replacing when fitting a steering rack. We recommend using Castrol Dextron TQII (a mineral oil).

The Rebuild Process

  • New olives and seals are fitted to the pinion housing. New bearings and sealing rings are fitted to the pinion using specially made tools. The shims, with new gaskets, are then set up and adjusted to give the correct rotational force of the pinion. New bearing rings are also fitted to the ‘rack bar’, and again, using specially made tools, the rack bar is fitted to the steering rack body. The teeth on the pinion and rack bar are coated in manual-specific grease.
  • The pinion assembly is then aligned with the ‘rack bar’ in the rack to ‘dead centre’, and the rotational force is again checked, and adjusted, if necessary. All bolts/nuts are torque-tightened to manual spec. Rotational forces are also measured to manual spec.
  • Some racks have external shims or an adjuster, which are set up to manual spec. New bellows, centre block seal, O-rings, and end caps are fitted to the rack. The ‘feet’ are then aligned, and the end cap is torque-tightened.
  • The rack will then go through a series of bench tests. The test machine replicates the condition in which the rack would be on the car. The rack is assessed for leaks and smoothness. After testing, the rack is cleaned, prepped for paint, and painted in our spray booth. Finally, the rack is bagged and boxed up ready for the customer.

Shipping & Delivery

As an international mail order company, our focus is to get parts to our customers as quickly and economically as possible. Where possible we will try to provide a choice of shipping options.

Our database knows the weight of every part listed on our website. In the majority of cases this allows automatic shipping options for each order to be chosen at the checkout. Unfortunately, penalties will be imposed by all shipping companies if a parcel is particularly large in size compared to its weight, this is commonly known as “voluming out”. This means that sometimes we are unable to accurately quote shipping for orders until we have packed the parcel and confirmed the shipping cost.

Please be aware that import duties and taxes may apply in countries outside of the European Union. All duties and taxes are set by the Customs Authority of the destination country and, as such, we have no control over them. Please note that it will be the responsibility of the customer to pay all duties and taxes.

Our two most commonly used methods of shipment are by the postal service and UPS.

We do, however, hold accounts with most major international couriers so please let us know if you have a preferred courier or if you would like us to ship using an account you hold with a specific courier.

Further information (including the ability to track a parcel) is available here:

If you would like to discuss a parcel with a member of our Logistics team please email us using: despatch@flyingspares.co.uk
