Check for worn parts and then get a wheel alignment. You don't want to pay for an alignment twice.

If its a high mile car an you have never replaced the outer tie rods, control arm bushings or ball joints you may want to do this when you replace the rack. I would also suggest Maximum Motorsports caster camber plates if you can swing them cost wise as this may be a camber and/or toe issue. Front end alignments are expensive so do all the work once.

If you cannot afford the CC plates then at a minimum get these:


You remove the top bolt on the strut where connects to the spindle and replace that bolt with one of these. The alignment shop can then bring the camber into spec or a lot closer.
