on Turn One. This is not that easy of a job if it's the first time you have done it. You only want to do it once. They do take a while to get it done, maybe a couple of weeks in my case. Dave

What steering rack?
I am replacing the rack in my 1993. There are plenty of brands out there, Delco, Duralast, Cardone, etc.
Anyone have a preference or one I should avoid?

Good luck. I replaced my Duralast rebuilt twice before I got one that didn't leak. They were covered under warranty with no problem but it was a pain to replace it each time. Don't know if others are any better. I recommend finding a local shop to rebuild your old one.

I don't have a leak or a failure, maybe I should just leave it alone. The motor's out and the rack has a LOT of miles on it, seemed like a good idea.
I've used turn one before (PS pump) but won't have time to send it for rebuild before the motor goes in.
Thanks to all for the suggestions.

There's nothing wrong with it, even the boots look like they are in mint shape. Now woujld be the time to fix it if anything was wrong.
I did put polyurethane bushings (2 total) in the rack since I heard positive comments on here from people who've done that
