free play on drivers side wheel in the steering rack

[h4ml3t]

just had an MOT and they said theres slight free play on the drivers side wheel to do with the steering rack, ( not track rod ends as iv just fitted some and bottom ball joints ) iv had a feel and there is slight play not enogh to fail though, but il be driving to germany in a few months so want to fix it before it gets worse.
do the steering arms come of from the rack or does the whole rack need replacing? lol

I 95% sure you can just change the arm's being the inner track rod arm. What model?

I am 100% sure. Doesn't matter which model. RS inner track rods are dealer only.

Dealer only. Motor factor's items will be too short.
