Okay, I posted earlier today about blown TRW tie rods, well, when I dug into the problem tonight I found a moderate rack seal leak on the driver side. Then I pulled the boot off the passenger side and close to half a quart of clean PS fluid came flowing out, the boot was full! The rack has obviously failed 2 years after it was rebuilt either from abuse or reman errors.

So, who have you gotten rebuilt CAM racks from with excellent results? Swedish Bricks seems to recommend: http://www.jorgenauto.com/index.html, do you have any experience with their products/services?

I will not say what company I got this rebuilt rack from as I'm not sure if it was their fault or extreme road conditions (pot-holes from hell), but who have you gotten rebuilt racks from and how well have they worked out?

Sorry, not willing to go bone-yard on a PS rack.

Thanks in advance!
