I just bought and installed a brand new Pump w/ hoses about 3,000 miles ago. I hit a curb, so I have to spend $210 on a rim, the price to mount/balance new tires that I already have, and get an alignment done. Well, since I need an alignment, I figured I should get the tie rods replaced....

Well, I guess I may as well get a new rack:

50resto offers these kits: http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...nd-Pinion-Kits

They offer one kit with everything in it, which is nice if you wanna replace everything.
Also, what about the bushings? Offset or Non-offset?

If you go through NAPA to get all of these parts, after the core return, the price ends up being the same as 50resto... You'll get the brand REMANS, versus a brand TWR or FORD through 50resto....


But, if I could do it ALL over again, I guess I would of gone with the MANUAL steering rack.
But, at this point I gotta stick with power steering.

btw 150,000 miles on the current rack

Do you have any problems with your rack now?
You do not need offset bushings if you are not lowered more than 1.25 inches usually.

It's hard to say, I think its starting to leak recently and i have a feeling that it'll start to deteriorate soon...

I am lowered THAT or more actually... so i will need offset bushings, not the non-offset bushings then..
