Re: Xantia - steering completely solid
I am a little cross. Got new longer track rods, fitted them. Only to find that the hydraulic fittings are different too. The sizes and type of thread, plus no spring with washer. Help!! Please.
If I ever get this rack fitted I'll be shocked. But will check the boot fitting!

Re: Xantia - steering completely solid
There was a point in S2 production where many of the hydraulic fittings changed, and then towards the end of the run, some changed back to the original type. I don't currently have access to my documents to check if that applied to the steering hydraulics.

Argh I’m sorry this is turning into such a nightmare. When you finally do get the rack fitted, I hope it sorts your issues.
