Tools needed to adjust manual rack?

[Old'n'Slow]

I found a nice old funky manual rack that has a little slop at the pinion. It looks like there's an adjustment on the front side to compensate for wear, but the Bentley for E30s doesn't speak "manual rack-ese"

Steering feel is WAY better than before even with the slop, and it's not too hard to park as well.

Thanks to all!

I *THINK* it is similar to adjusting slop like on a duece...so look up how to do it on a 2002 :)

Looks like the 2002 had a box not a rack. The 320i sites were absolutely no help. I've spent several hours on google looking all over the place and I can't even find the procedure, much less the tools! :x
