Couple of questions about the rack damper - I've searched the forum, but found no definitive answers on this:
1) Is it possilble to remove the rack damper pin WITHOUT removing the oil filter housing first?! THere's just very little room there to maneuver...
2) What risks are associated with removal of the rack damper pin - it seems mine is screwed IN all the way (old silver kind).
3) Is it best to replace the old rack damper pin for the new style or leave it alone if the car doesn't have related symptoms.
4) If I were to remove it, what adjustments would I have to make when re-installing...
