[V8] Steering Rack R&R Procedure

[Ingo Rautenberg]

How could I forget!  Yeah, I imagine it would be easier with the five-speed.
The automatic is the one that's currently being worked on.

... that sounds like the Procon Ten stuff ... I hadn't thought about
that ... mine is also a '91 with Servotronic, but I don't think that
makes much difference ... I suppose the other thing is that I'm talking
about a 5-speed, which I'm suspecting might be a bit easier than an
automatic ...

Thanks Ingo!
