Hi folks, I'm after a bit of help and advice please.

1996 4.0 V6 RHD Explorer (UK).

Truck has play in the drivers side of the steering rack so I've been looking for a replacement rack, but finding it difficult to find a RHD rack, preferably reconditioned, or known good second hand.

Are there any UK spec vehicles that would use the same rack?
UK Ranger, for example is not, as far as i can see, the same as the NA Ranger.

Or, would changing the inner track rod possibly be the solution? Or, are they adjustable?
I'm assuming the play is in the rack and pinion drive though, so track rod won't cure it.

Many thanks in advance.
