1/4" ? That puts things into perspective. Since I'd found the upper control arm long bolt/eccentric washers, figured these guys http://shop.vw-bus.com/product_info.php?info=p1059_VW-Bus-T3-Transverse-Link-Bolt--upper.html&XTCsid=yvitlpforejw might have a rebuild kit for the manual rack. None that I can see. I imagine there's more sales in power steering rack parts to make any kind of rebuild kit worthwhile from a vendors POV. Was there one at one time? I seem to recall mention in the archives. Though maybe that was for the PS unit. Neil.
