Reply to "Longchamp Steering rack"

finlandeseMember

Thank you for your replies.

I contacted Roland, and he has a connection for a rebuild, but it takes the car off the road for six months at least.
While doing research, I have run in to a problem I can´t yet explain. All my sources tell me that the early rack is made by Cam Gears U.K. and it was used in the Jaguar 420. When I read up on a Jaguar 420, they say that it used a Marles Varamatic power steering rack. I´m confused. Jaguar guys keep upgrading their 420´s, Mark II´s and S-types, with an upgrade kit that converts their cars to (I think) XJ-s rack and pinion set up. If the early Longchamp rack is the same to any Jaguar one, I´m pretty sure that the Jaguar rack conversion kits will work on a Longchamp too.
