        I would be very gratefull if everyone could put down their guns and
saucepans for a minute to check for a part number for one specific seal in
the Power steering rack and pinion assemble.  Seems I damaged the seal for
the work piston- the one you are supposed slide carefully over the two
super sharp grooves on the rack with paper so you don't damage it.  Oops.
Am trying to avoid buying another whole rebuild kit.  It is the only rubber
seal on the work piston tub, as seen on the exploded view in the Bentley
(don't have page number- sorry.)  I hope to at least cross-reference the
number on the seal with a local bearing shop and see if I can get one.
TIA-
        Shawn
