The '87 Westy has been going along with no problems, but I recently noticed a groan when turning the steering wheel off center, then it would quiet again when straight.� I discovered that the fluid was down to the MIN mark so topped it off, but about 100 miles later the noise returned and the fluid had dropped again.� Looks like some seepage around the hoses on the reservoir but not enough to account for that loss so I crawled under and found on the passenger side of the rack a crusty and torn boot, and the wet shiny metal of the rack and some drips.� I expect the other side is not much better but nothing obvious.
�
Can the rack be rebuilt or must I buy a new one?� Is it safe to drive meanwhile or do I risk damaging something of the fluid gets too low?� Thanks!
