The Bentley manual specifies that the TR6 steering rack be greased through the plug at the top of the rack housing. The plug is to be removed and a suitable grease fitting used. Well I got the plug o

I recently went through the same exercise with my GT6. I think the plug is a pipe thread. At any rate, I noticed that the flexible hose from one of my many grease guns fit it just fine. I removed the

Bentley says grease, TRF's catalog and the Six Tech manual say gear oil. I have used grease in the past but never gear oil. Maybe this is somewhat akin to the trunnion lubrication debate? Just out of

I tried that and the hypoid oil ate through the rubber bellows in a years time. I'll stick with grease. Bob Kramer, Austin TX Hill Country Triumph Club TR6x3, TR250 x3, TR3A vintage race rgk@flash.ne

I use grease. The GT6 MK III manual is written in a way that could easily you think it should be gear oil. The rack section immediately follows the section on steering swivels which do take oil (in a

I was going to try the one from the rear grease points of the car, they look the same size. The front ones are not the same because they take oil. This is for a spitfire, but I assume that it is liab

My mechanic says my steering rack is sloppy; it's not the tie-rods or tie rod ends. He says it's the "bushings". He wants to pull the rack and have a machinist make new bronze bushings for it. The bu
