Replacement steering rack

I have a clunk in my rack........ Did that come out wrong?

 

Anyway, I'm looking to replace the rack & pinion but don't want to pay $600 or more just for the rack, never mind labor. Anyone know of a good re-manufactured one? I've heard all sorts of horror stories about A1 Cardone, but they seem to be the ones most available. :scratchhead:

I got mine off of a '96 Q that I spotted in my local j/y. I think I paid $30-45 for it. Of course, I had to take it off and install it myself. The biggest cost was paying for the alingment.

Oh yeah, make sure that you check the rubber isolator on the driver side (directly under the oil filter) as they tend to parish quicker than the passenger side because of the spilled oil on the mount.

It is better than a grinding in your rear end... :shrug:

 

Sorry, never messed with the rack, but I see that RockAuto has ACDelco reman for $200-250 if you want to avoid A1...

Already replaced both isolators a year ago, my friend :D:itsallgood:
