You can buy a rebuilt or new rack from FCPGroton.com (I think both are available).

One more comment before you go for a replacement. My 850 has a slow leak from the rack seals. I'm assuming your rack is leaking through the seals too. I topped it up with Mobil synthetic ATF recently and the leak has slowed significantly. I read an old post from someone who said they used Lucas Power Steering Anti-Leak fluid (not sure of the name) and that stopped their rack from leaking completely. Next time I'm going to top up with Lucas. Figure I've got nothing to lose :)
