    How To: Replace your own steering rack

    I got the input shaft in place today and perfectly centered (sixth times a charm...). Like you said I can push back the bolt through the coupler now, then I have a stupid question... will the tooth on the input shaft and the coupler inside automatically bite together very well after I torqued...

    How To: Replace your own steering rack

    Hey man, I got my new rack wiggled into the position, thank you so much for your "Paint mark" idea, I believe I can easily center it again. Do we really need to loosen the two bolts on the top of the shaft column for connecting the lower joint to the rack? or just like you said, rotate the rack...

    How To: Replace your own steering rack

    About the "count revolutions", I just want to confirm what my understanding of you said. You should mean, we turn the input shaft to left as far as possible, then we start to turn right and count, for example, if it took 4 whole turns (revolutions) to go to the very end of the right side, then...

    How To: Replace your own steering rack

    Brilliant! thanks! Do you have a picture to show how much gap between the shaft column and rack after connect them together? or to say how much depth the rack input goes into the joint of the column shaft? I forgot to take a clear pic of that, I am so exhausted...

    Finally got this ass out...if I don't have the stuff I learn from this post I will never imagine how could get this done, big huge thanks to the contributors of this post! And I found it almost impossible to push or pull the TREs by hand, so could we use piler to adjust the new rack? If so...

    How To: Replace your own steering rack

    Since I have a new rack and TREs in hand, so in the worst case, could I just cut off the outer TREs then get the job done? (the blue area was rounded/strip during the alignment already, so have to have plan B) Thanks!

    How To: Replace your own steering rack

    Thanks, man, but the move direction of the wrench in my picture is correct right? means the Jam nut is still a normal thread I just need to hold the blue cycle area and turn the jam nut in?

    Could please help me to check the direction for loosening the jam nut？ is the direction showed in the below picture correct? Or should I put the wrench on the blue cycle area and the jam nut?

    How To: Replace your own steering rack

    Thanks, man, I got two of those guys accidentally. Did you reuse the return line when you replace your rack? So basically, if it comes off easily then I don't need to replace the return line, right? Mine is a California car, should come off very easily...

    I saw you detached the torsion bar, is this a rack replacement required step? or you did this for something else?

    How To: Replace your own steering rack

    I plan to centered my steering firstly, then measure my old rack, I don't think the rack has been changed so far, maybe the old one centered pretty well, if it is centered, then I will count the turns of the outer TREs, then I could apply those turns to the new TREs after done the rack change...

    Yeah~quite a while, and also the "repairment need list" is finally running to this point~I am kind of a "well-known" customer in my local dealer... :grinpimp: At least two of those part guys said to me something like that "wait a min, you just have one order this time?"

    How To: Replace your own steering rack

    My rack will arrive next Wednesday, I become nervous now... If we remove the intermittent shaft out then try to accurately adjust both lengths of the new rack inner TREs and install it. then, do we still need to count the turns of the old TREs and put on the new outer TREs using those turns? To...

    And also, I remember you have to cut the line because you can not loosen it, so it was heavily rusted?
