Why Are Rack Boots Not Included with This Type 1 Repair Kit?
In some cases, vehicles may be equipped with NISMO or other aftermarket tie rods (L/R), and rack boots may be replaced at the same time depending on the setup.
To avoid unnecessary duplication and additional cost, rack boots are intentionally not included in Repair Kit Type 1.
This allows customers to:
- Reuse existing boots where applicable
- Install brand-new boots of their choice during the repair
- Avoid paying for parts they do not need
If you are looking for a repair kit that includes rack boots, please consider Repair Kit Type 3.
Cylinder End Cover Assembly – Important Note for Type 1
- When removing the cylinder end cover assembly, it is necessary to drill out the staked portion at the end of the gear housing using a 3.0 mm drill bit.
If the staking is not completely removed, the threads of the cylinder end cover may be damaged during removal.
For this reason, a spare cylinder end cover assembly is included in Repair Kit Type 2 and Type 4. - Repair Kit Type 1 does NOT include a spare end cover assembly.
This kit is recommended for experienced technicians who are confident reusing the original cylinder end cover assembly.

Important Notice
- Some internal rack components are discontinued. If internal wear or damage is found, this repair kit cannot address those issues.
- In particular, the rear housing bearing seal is not available as an individual service part.
If the bearing or seal is damaged, replacement of the rear housing assembly is required, however this assembly has been discontinued.
