Hi folks,

I just spent the weekend fighting with my wife's '92 cabrio...putting in
a
new power rack & pinion unit. What a PITA!!! I managed to thread the old
one
out and the new one in while leaving everything else hooked up...but if
there's a next time I'll just yank the engine.

Anyways, there is a rubber boot that encloses the u-joints between the
steering rack and the firewall of the car that I need to replace. Can
somebody look up the part # for me?

Oh, and I couldn't keep up with the mail...please let the discussion
that
started as "Utah Diesel" just end.

Thanks,
TomC
