Shaking each front wheel side to side on my TR6 produced a clunking 
sound on the right side.  I traced it to the right inner tie rod end.  I 
ordered TRF replacement ends and started installation.  I found that 
although the end on the right side had some wear, I also can move the 
rack side to side in the housing.  Hmmm.

What is the best course? A new rack? Replace the right side rack bush? 
How is that done?

I might be leaning to a new/reman rack to be sure all components are to 
spec.  Any/all comments are welcome.
