haha bunch of weirdos
I have a stearing question. I replaced the pump because it was leaking tons of fluids. did the ol turn it clock to clock 40 times seemed fine for a bit
Then it was having trouble turning left. Now it feels like im trying to turn a model A with a ox sitting on the front of it.
the pump whines alil but nothing to out of line.
wondering if i have a bad rack or if i need to bleed it a different way. i did hear fluid pushing though it when i was turning it after i replaced the pump(b4 driving)
any help would be great ty
your rack took a crap on ya. sorry to say.
the pump dont need to be bleed either. its the rack that needs the lock to lock 15 times to flush any air from it and the lines.
i went used and it lasted a year, then bought a reman one from napa for like 160 on sale.
with used theres always a chance of failure. on the bright side, doing a rack the second time is way faster then the first time lol
well i can say i would rather do it once lol i did the a/c on my van 2 times cuz the 1st remaned was bad. yes 2 hours 1st time 30 mins 2nd time.
i seen some on ebay 140 range remaned maybe ill go that route.
i gota drop the back of the sub-frame for that huh?.
yup, about 6 inches. after you lower the frame its easier to get to the lines on the rack, those are 18 mm a line wrench works best, but a open end will do. and i was able to get the rack bolts out with out removing the sway bar as you can see there.
im a lank so i was able to reach in from the sides of the car and get the rack bolts out and the steering shaft, i only had to go under the car to get the lines off.
when installing the new rack pull the steering shaft down out of the boot as far as it will go, then jack the sub frame up to the shaft, then like a 1/2 to a inch more then work the shaft back on the rack, this way the boots not in the damn way. once its fully seated bolt it back on and lift the frame and re bolt it up.
found these cut wires under the car yesterday. On pass side right above where the axle goes into the trans. Anyone know what they may have been for?
