I noticed a lot of power steering fluid inside my inner tie rod end boot and thats when I decided to try and rebuild my own rack and pinion on my 95 Eclipse GSX. I only found 1 write up on how to rebuild one of these http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/art...6-how-remove-rebuild-power-steering-rack.html
I wanted to try and do it myself just to see how hard it would be. I got my rebuild kit for like $38 shipped. I started by removing the 2 lines on the rack.
Everything was going well untill I tried removing one of the seal
I ended up breaking a chunk off the seal casing, Im not even sure what to call that piece. I was so mad i couldn't get that seal off. anyways here is a pic of the broken park
Luckily I had an extra rack in my basement, so im hoping that 1 doesnt need rebuild. Anyone ever tried rebuilding their own? Id like to hear some input on this topic
