Steering Rack Leak (ZF) 700 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be Brendan on  Wed Jan 5 10:21 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Hello..

I started up the brick yesterday, and no power steering. It has had no symptoms of a failing rack, but when I looked under the car afterward, ALL the steering fluid was now in the driveway.

After refilling the reservoir, there is a steady drip from one of the two metal lines that run from where the fluid enters the rack, to either end of it.

Is there a source for these lines for a ZF rack ('90 745ti)? Can they be replaced without removing the rack? I'd rather not replace the entire unit if I don't need to.

Should any hydrolic shop be able to reproduce these lines if I bring them the old ones??

Looking for suggestions..
