I thought fitting the steering rack was going to be a 10 min job but as always some of the simplest things get complicated. The mounting points on the rack were too close together so there wasn't enough space for the rubber fittings. I spoke to Westfield who said their supplier wasn't great with the welding... very helpful! What they did say was that so long as the RHS mounting was properly fixed, the LHS end wasn't as important. So I fitted RHS first then fit the LHS as best I could.

and from above...as the rubber wasn't able to fit down the side, it pushed it over:
