Steve,

You don't need to remove the steering rack from the car to fill it with 
fluid. If you jack the car up and remove the drivers side front wheel, you 
can get at the cover plate on the front of the steering box which holds the 
nylon guide and spring assembly. Just remove the cover plate, spring and 
nylon guide, add the specified amount and type of lube, and re-install 
everything. When you remove the cover plate you may find some real thin shims 
which space the plate and steering box. Again, just re-install them the same 
as they come off.
