Steering Rack

After some great advice (thanks Franky) I managed to remove the steering rack nuts very easily by just heating them up with a hair dryer type of paint stripper, slipped on the compression springs required for the IVA test, greased it up and put it all back.

A few minutes heating loosens the glue keeping the nut in place

A little grease over the spring and then the gaiter went back

The IVA also requires a gaiter covering the steering rod nut. Once that was in place I put one of the disks on ready for calipers tomorrow.
