![]() That is why I am trying to get info as to how much one would really cost so that I know what I have to compete with to find out if its worth my time to beat whatever the lowest price option out there is. So if people can get a quote from a local shop, thats great. Right now the lowest price that I have to "compete" against is about $230 shipped for the engine RPM version and $330 shipped for the vehicle speed sensitive version. ![]() |

Re: Rebuilt Steering racks "feeler"
Aftermarket rack for the svx? Would one off an sti work? Would it be lighter?

Re: Rebuilt Steering racks "feeler"
Alright, so since the deal to buy the current extra steering rack I have seems to have fallen through (no payment received in over a month) I will be able to start tearing into that rack instead of having to wait until after Reading where I am getting another one. Hopefully I will have some progress and info in the near future.

Re: Rebuilt Steering racks "feeler"
That's great. Make sure to keep us updated. I'm sure this will be a great service for everyone who owns an SVX.... With leaky ps racks..

Re: Rebuilt Steering racks "feeler"
I've got a leaky steering column. But does this mean it's leaking power steering fluid? I checked mine after I failed inspection and still after months the fluid is still at the same level. He quoted me for 1400 dollars. That's pretty steep. Does anyone here know a cheaper alternative?

Re: Rebuilt Steering racks "feeler"
Well, just an update, but I finally have the old rack completely disassembled and will start looking around for the various seals needed as time allows.
Will keep you all posted |
