Steering rack boots

**EDCivic** · 03-01-2011 09:47 PM

I picked up a steering rack the other day as a "spare" for our ED Civic. It was in pretty good nick except for one boot which was ripped. Any idea (apart from Honda) where I could buy a set (in Adelaide) from ?

any local parts shops (supercheap, autobarn etc)

Easy (?) will ask for a price from these guys. Owning a Honda for so many years I have experienced that there are only so many parts you can buy apart from the big $$$ OEM Honda originals.

they are not expensive from Honda.

just get originals if you cant find them anywhere else. that way yo know they will fit

If that's the case re price wise for originals, I will. I had the luck so to speak to find a 1990 Civic wreck (was hit in back big time) and as it has only done 170 k's I thought it would be an excellent donor car for ours so I have been busy taking those items that will come in handy to repair ours. We have a wrecking yard here in Adelaide that you take the bits off yourself at excellent prices. So far I bought the steering rack for $95, the dizzy which was in excellent condition ie no typical oil leak they all seem to have, for $50 and all the door trims at $14 each a passenger seat for $50 and the bottom part of the rear seat for $25 and last weekend I couldn't help myself and pulled its motor out to get the auto tranny for $120. Looks like ours wil be going for a few more years longer !
