<p><font face="Arial">There has been a lot of good advise regarding
refilling the rack and ensuring that the amount added meets the
volume stated in the manual. But, short of removing a boot and
tilting the car for a lengthy time there really is no way of
knowing when the fluid is replenished there isn't residual and
the rack may be getting overfilled.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">Perhaps another point that could be part of
this discussion is why the rack needs to have fluid added.
Leaking boots are an obvious point but the rack end caps where
they go over the tube are another source. I recall the Shop
Notes... (where are mine???) had a discussion about that.As I
stated in a previous post my rack was gone thru and 20 years
later with no use there is an accumulation of gear oil on the
crossmember. It isn't where you can see it dripping but it must
leak in the smallest amount.?? Has anyone come up with a good
solution for the end caps? </font><br>
