Complete Rack (Ford or ZF)?
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I'm ordering a rack from rackdoctor.com. There are 2 options. Ford Gear and a ZF Gear. I have a 2000 S-type 3.0. I'm pretty sure its the Ford Gear but rackdoctor couldn't tell me by my VIN.
Any idea how I can find out? I don't own a lift, but I could jack the car up if needed.
Thanks in advance!

2000MY S-Types used the Ford racks and sometime in 2001 onward had ZF installed.
I think the changeover VIN is L86902. If your car is earlier then you have the Ford rack.
The Ford racks are difficult to 'bleed' the air from the system. A vacuum tool was issued to the dealers and TSBs referenced the JTIS section for the procedure.
