Thanks again.
My main concern was the length of the shaft so I have clearance to turn the nut and the angle of it from the parallel. I haven't left the shaft completely parallel to the face of the ring, as you mentioned part bending it to be straight. I hope if I haven't go that quite correct then the offset of the ring from the back of the shaft will compensate nicely |

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but will adjusting / tightening this take up play at the rack end of the steering rack, or is it to adjust the steering wheel end of the steering rack
Thanks in advance, Mike |

There is a bush on the other side , so if play and it is not the inner ball joint then the bush will be worn .

I've never known one wear .. It would be a specialist job as the rack would need dismantling , IF you could get a bush !

Hi,
my 2005 xc90 D5 has a metal guard underneath and around the adjustment screw on the rack. I cant see anyway of getting at it. Does it require the dropping of the sub frame? Any suggestions? Thanks. |

May sound like a stupid question but what exactly is a steering rack damper pad. I assume it removes vibration through the steering column?

It is a plastic pad which presses the rack into the pinion, the adjustment is to minimise any play , go too far and the steering goes stiff .
