1) What type of oil goes in the steering rack? Not the boots but the steering gearbox itself.....

2) I have 4 plates that are the same diamond shape as the engine mount top piece. Are these just shims, to be used
as needed?

Work is going well, otherwise. Just need to wait until my wife gets home from shopping to reinstall the rack, as I can't get the
shaft back into the u-joint in the proper position while using my feet to push on the rack bar from below.... It's a tight fit! I'm going
to temporarily put it in with just a couple of bolts, so I can steer the car around as I prepare to reinstall the engine. Probably
won't get to that until next week-end, as I want to go chase a ball around a course later this afternoon ;-) Too many hobbies,
not enough time!
