Ok, I can't for the life of me get the steering rack. this whole project started as a control arm upgrade, and I have decided to replace the bushings on the steering rack when I get it off. I have removed the two nuts that connect the rack to the K-Member, and I can't get one side to budge, is there another nut I am missing somewhere?

 

bump anyone?

 

According to my FSM there are only two bolts/nuts holding it onto the cross member. Maybe its the steering column/rod connecting to the pinion gear in the rack-n-pinion to the steering wheel thats holding it in place? I've never taken one off before, so thats just a guess.

 

You almost have to pry it off due to the rubber bushings binding up on th ebolt shafts on the k-member. Make sure the sterring shaft is disconnected first.
