Thanks for the info. Does this require getting in underneath and dropping the differential for access or just loosening from the top?
On my car, I have too remove the swap bar and one inner and outer tie rod .
First Mark the center of your steering wheel. I using masting tape. On the trim panel too the steering wheel than cut it. Now you have center.
I turn the steering wheel too the right, which makes pass side control go into the rack. Then I removed the driver side control arm complete.
You will be getting new control arm with the new rack.
Don't buy a remain rack, three replacement nothing but problems.
Next there is a check valve in thE tube port, I want to say bottom( high pressure line). That needs to be transfer over to be New rack. Its he'll in with a tab washer. You need a small pick or screwdriver too remove it. Either turn it out or bent the tab on the washer. A and uses a magnetic to remove it.
O-rings use warm water to soften then before using.
Mark the center of the new rack on shaft too body bottom side so you can see it, when you on the ground.
I am up in air about this. My new rack came grease. Reman rack don't.
You need too grease to inner control arm joint and the rack splice shaft wIth wheel Bearing grease.
Read Donalds writeup. It take me a day (6hrs)too remove and next day to install.
Hope you are also replacing the tube hoses. This way you can just cut the tube and can use a socket to remove the fitting. You can wait and see how rusted everything is.
Replace the outer tie rod ends
