Best option for Rack and Pinion? (1 Viewer)

[ghong14]

New OEM is the only way to go. I just did this last year at 349k same exact thing was still working fine but boots split and allowed dirt to get to the seals and started leaking.
The dealers have them. Try and find a good dealer with lower prices online and order for pickup. Much cheaper that way.

Do you recall how much you paid?

I got OEM Reman from the dealer. $678.00 including $150 Core charge which they credited as soon as they received the old one.
So $528.00

Started out a bit stiff but “broke in” to perfect after about two months. My theory is that they build it tight on purpose…

I’ve ordered from Toyota of Decatur a bunch (Serra Toyota) always well packed and pretty quick. Although I’ve heard of longer waits during sales.

I purchased a new rack through Decatur at their 20% off sale over July 4th. Purchased it July 3rd for $475 with free shipping. It shipped same day and delivered on July 6th. Was blown away by how fast it arrived.

Plus no 6% state sales tax for me, since they have no physical presence here.
