[Mgs] [MG-MGB] LH Engine Mount

Ok, so I don't have a 'scissors taper cracker' (or at least I'm pretty sure I don't)..... Are these the nuts to remove on the steering arm end?

I see a couple of shims on one of the 4 bolts holding the rack to the chassis arms, so will replace them as found. I've also marked the
u-joint end of the steering shaft so I can re-orient it properly when I install it.

Much less invasive to remove the rack complete.  Two nuts if you have a scissors taper cracker or four bolts to remove the steering arms if you don't, and four nuts and two bolts to remove the rack from the cross-member.  You do have to watch out for any shims between the rack and cross-member and out them back as you found them.

  Am I correct in thinking that I need can remove just the shaft, and not the entire rack??
