C5 streering rack ??= C6 steering rack
I am in need of a new steering rack for my 2000 c5 but can't seem to find a good one. I might be able to get the c6 steering rack but i am not sure if it will work. Does anyone know? Or have a c5 rack with low miles 
thanks
PS i know the part # is different but they look the same

I have removed both racks, never noticed any differences other than the C6 is a pita to work with, much tighter than the c5
give Fred Beans a call in the am and ask the question

Please, Please if you get a new rack let me buy the rubber bushings from pass side mount?
The darn things can't be bought w/o the rack and I need a set. Oh, and please don't hurt me?
Thanks,

You can buy them separately - they cost $18 each from the Stealership. I bought one in January.
