Rack and Pinion rebuild kit?
Anyone know if there is a rebuild kit for the rack and pinion? I have a seal leaking and I'm not going to spend $400 for a rack if I can rebuild this one with new seals.

steering rack rebuild
Zip corvettes will do a rebuild for $225 with core exchange.
IF you go to turnone, which is what I recommend, the guy is an ex GM steering engineer, he will remanufacture the rack with rack dyno testing, $250 for that. |

Do you know exactly where it's leaking. Reason I ask is because I had a small but messy leak coming from the unit near the steering pinion. When I replaced my harmonic balancer the hydraulic lines had to be detached. The little neoprene o-rings were hard as a rock and triangle shaped. Buttoned it back together with fresh o-rings and no more leak! Of course, your results may vary.....

So you consider a steering rack "rebuilt", just changing the seals? Do you work for Autozone? :rofl:

Did you ever find a seal kit for your rack and pinion?

Good time to swap the harmonic balancer out while the rack is out.
