good work dude

[possumscratcher]

I have just bought an '88 mechanical 4WS Prelude - didnt really appreciate it until i got on a downhill series of hairpins (Hawksbury Heights/Springwood Blue Mountains) then it was a revelation, like on rails. My question is are there any serviceable bits on th steering system? i havent looked closely at it yet - do they have oil ine the rear boxes? (its done 270k)

the rear rack is not serviceable although they can be overhauled when required.

there's grease in the rear rack and as long as you don't mess with it, you don't need to service it (as for 3rd gen).
