Anyone have or know of one? Kermit had an advisory on its last MOT, so I am planning ahead.

Many thanks for suggestions everyone.

MOT mentions "slight play on near side". The steering is certainly 'loose' compared to 051.

I think ideally if I could find a new one or a used one to recondition then I could replace the existing and then refurbish that one.

PS Will the Forum ever work properly again??!!

Well, the rack arrived today but it is a LHD one at least according to the part number.

this company bought a batch of racks, mostly LHD, but they are a good company so I don't think there will be any problems with a refund if no RHD racks available, honest mistake I am sure.
