I'm looking for somewhere that can replace the seals (which I have) in a power steering ram from a 1963 Austin.
I'm in Lincolnshire, but can travel.
I've tried the VDP club and local hydraulic firms, but this needs a couple of special tools which they don;t have.
HELP!!!
Power steering leaks are a known weakness in the Triumph range. You could try giving Rimmers a ring (01522 568000) to see if they have a firm that does overhauls for them. (Rimmers are in Bracebridge Heath LN4 which isn't far from you). I imagine that any firm with the right gear ought to be able to handle Austin as well as Triumph.

I *think* Triumph only ever fitted power steering racks. The '63 Austin would be a box, rather than rack, and probably of US manufacture. I'd try a US specialist for a new part. 'S' Series Bentleys used a ram system - so that might be another route to try.
