Back to work after some elderly parental issues...

So, steering rack heim off and regreased with grease gun. Have heim boots and special pliers to get heim boot on.

Am curious, since my jam nut is welded to the large circular metal disc, and I had to remove this jam nut combo from the heim joint to get the jam nut combo into the end of the boot (heim would not fit thru small opening on boot end), is it hit and miss to get it all reinstalled to same location?

I did take some measurements before I disassembled the heim to jam nut/metal disc combo: given the placement of the jam nut combo on the heim joint thread, it took exactly 18 full turns of the heim/jam nut combo to get it off...the distance between the outer edge of the jam nut and bottom of inside edge of the heim body was 16mm...the distance between the inside edge of the jam nut and outside edge of the heim body was 56mm.
