Can you get a pic of the front of the power steering pump and bracket please ? I'm going to move the bracket for better access..

The m/c is off a SEAT cupra might be the turbo one not sure.. £30 on eBay with adaptor as you need adaptor to fit mk2/3 servo

Yer went on a treat mate.. i soaked the mk2 track rods with plusgas and used stilsens and they came off a treat.. only problem is on the track roads my track rod ends are about 20mm further out each side and not held on with a lot.. does this mean i need a mk3 rack ?? also i need tdi shafts :(

Did you use the mk3 track rod ends ? As long as there's a good few threads going into them they should be ok.

Yea I think you'll need shafts. Mine went with the engine and box.

yer they are on about 4 full turns it just worries me as the mk2 items went on another 20mm i dont want these coming loose.. im sure tdi shafts will be cheap as chips down a scrappy or ebay.. will get pics soon of the brakes.. still waiting on my friend to run my lines..


Corrado pedal box and master cylinder on route all i need is line from master to slave and master to reserviour..
