Steering Rack

[pete goodwin]

Hi Everbody
I need to change my track rod end's but don't know what the rack is. When i bought the car i had no info with it (a learning procees) The car is a pilgrim sumo ( mk111 I think) with jag running gear.Going to have the tracking done and check the rear wheel's for toe in or toe out ho and the bumpsteer it look's like there's a shim under the rack so hopeing this has been done.There's photo's in my gallery of the rack hope somebody will be able to id it for me

I was told that the only Jag thing on an alleged 'Jag' based Sumo was the rear end. The front was standard Sierra or Granada, though I could be wrong.
However that does look like a P100 Rack.

Hi Wilf thank's for your input do you think the rack is a P100? Will measure the dia of disc to find out which model there off

Sorry Pete, can't help with the rack as it is a long time since I owned a Sumo. You discs are likely to be series 1/2/3 XJ, but double check the dia anyway.
How many pistons on the front calipers? That also helps date the things.
