Hey Everyone,
I am looking for some advice on a Rack and Pinion. Mine is original to my '08 and the leak which start about 10 months ago is getting bad. I've got a couple patch jobs in my lines as well, it needs an overhaul. I've got a couple reasonable options for pricing here in Canada. I can order from RA or Detroit Axle and ship to the border for pickup. Is there a preferred brand? I've read decent reports from Detroit Axle and the pricing seems good ($USD). Seems to be enough previous threads on here that make this job seem very doable on my garage floor.

I must say, after 16 years of ownership, I think my TB has been one of my best vehicles. Although you can see the power steering fluid all over the road, it has never left me stranded. On a side note, I did pick up a new Dorman Exhaust Manifold last night for $82 USD on a wholesaler closeout at RA.
