Buying a used steering rack: what to check

  1. Confirm hydraulic vs electric power steering. They never interchange.
  2. Check the input shaft and tie-rod ends for play.
  3. Ask whether the rack was leak-tested; seals are the usual failure.
  4. Match the mounting bushing style. Subframe designs change mid-generation.
