My steering rack is a bust and leaking fluid now...LMAO

It's not leaking from the rack...it's leaking from the where the fitting is. you think i should swap the whole rack or just the fitting and see what happens?

No manual rack for me, i like power steering and i don't have anymore money to put in this bitch until the fall.

So what is my option here and do you guys came across this problem?

Thanks

Please see the picture

have you tried pulling it off and resealing it with fresh tape? i would try the simple stuff before you go buying a new rack.

make sure you lube up the new o-rings with fresh ATF before you put the lines back on
