I have a bit of wear in mine.

Is it from another car or is it unique to Morgan.

Any ideas where to get it reconditioned?

Thanks
Andrew

Andrewr.Are you sure its the Rack, on the series 1 it has a rubber type cog that wears about every 10k and has to be replaced gives the impression of steering wear just done mine .Bhm said that no more are available and suggested the steering upgrade.The metal bit that wears where the cog sits also tend to break i have a spare one of those no more available.

What do they mean by a steering upgrade?

It was an MOT advisory by Brian Miller.

Andrew, the left and right lower ball joints were replaced on my car after an MOT failure. Richard Thorne supplied these, I assume from the factory. Having looked at my Aero book it describes the from end suspension and steering in the S1 as bespoke by the factory.

I replaced a lower ball joint on my first Aero a quarter of the price from morgan but i cant remember where i got it from it was a contact on talk morgan.It would be nice if we knew where the various bits come from as the factory doesent seem to keep much in stock for the older cars.
