Remove the two damper plugs along with the dampers and springs. Then pour
(slowly) oil into the rack per the capacities section of the workshop
manual. Replace the dampers, springs, and caps. You're done.

Subject: Filling the steering rack
When I get the steering rack boots back on, I'll need to fill the rack
with 90w gear oil, per the manual's instructions. Since I don't have the
proper type of grease gun to both a) fit the grease nipples, and b)
inject 90w oil into them, I need some advice on how others lubricate
their racks. Or do I need to spring for the 'pom pom' gun listed in the
Moss catalog to do the job?
Thanks again.
