Changing a steering rack gaiter on a Mini Classic

#ProjectCar #MiniCooperS #ClassicMini
To celebrate 200 of you lovely poeple subscribing to my channel, here is a "how to" on how to change a steering rack gaiter. This is a Mini Classic but it will be very similar on lots of cars.
Have fun!

Nice orange gloves. I like orange!

[@NeilBurgess]

They are really good. The orange makes it easier to find my hands as well 😀

Excellent video. I'm going to try and do mine now.

@@NeilBurgess what grease should i use and are the plastic cable ties better than the metal fastner type ones.

[@NeilBurgess]

@@codecraft2004 I just used a standard multi purpose grease. Plastic ties are easier to use I think. There are no clearance issues in this area

I've been toying with removing the rack gaiters and 3d printing some lock limiters to protect the cv joints

[@NeilBurgess]

That sounds like an interesting project, let me know how you get on!
