A week and a half ago, one of the transfer tubes on the steering rack sprung a leak. I began to remove it and started on the fitting. At first it was easy to remove, then it bound. I removed it by backing it out and screwing it in in stages. When it was out I found the threads flattened. I...

I need to replace the steering rack and pinion in my '03. I did it on my '04 and the Cardone rebuilt rack I put in has more slop in the center than the factory unit it replaced. From Rock Auto, a NEW rack is around $290, remanufactured racks are $100. That slop in the Cardone rack is extremely...

Hello everyone. I'll start with some background information. Changed the battery on my 2015 Chrysler T&C. Started to notice the steering felt off the next day. Dealer flushed the power steering fluid and said to bring it back to be checked in a couple weeks. After a few days I still felt the...

The breather tube between the two bellows on the rack and pinion power steering came loose and got damaged when my struts or sway bars broke. The breather tube was dragging along the ground and the end broke about 1/2" shorter than it was originally. You can't buy this part separately either...

I had my car in for an alignment. The mech said I had a loose tie rod and should fix before I align. I'd already replaced the right one. I replaced the left one, and now the mech said it must be an INNER tie rod. I've seen videos on how to replace, but I can get a rebuilt rack with 2 new inners...

So I've noticed that the bellow on my inner (right) tie rod has been leaking for some time now. It never seemed very bad and I wasn't aware of how the rack and pinion worked until I spent the past few hours figuring it out. I've had to top up the steering fluid twice in the past two years to...

Is the manual rack and pinion assembly a direct replacement for the power steering version? Should probably get rid of it now, less stuff to break later. Is it rack and pinion or recirculating balll? 88 Plymouth Voyager SE.

1995 Grand Caravan Sport Wagon, 3.3L 6cyl I have been having a vibration and wobble for a while now; recently got worse (which is good, that means I can diagnose it now!) Seems to be the steering pinion gear at the rack. There's a clunk right in there when I have a friend move the wheel back...
