You all probably dont care at all but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my login password. I love any tips you can give me.
@Ryker Cristiano instablaster :)
Thanks for the misleading title bro. If you wanna see an actual rack rebuild, keep looking. If you wanna see how to change tie rods and boots the hard way by removing the rack from the car so you can paint it, continue watching.
😂😂😂😂 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Great work but misleading title. Please rename to manual steering rack refresh! Beautiful refresh job! Very efficient too!
I guess i missed the part where you rebuild the rack.... Good job dude
Same, I skipped through the whole video looking for it
Waiting for rack repairs
A inner and outer tie rod replacement. Didn’t seem like a rack repair to me.
Haha I was hoping this was the first comment
🤷♂️😁
Not a rebuid video.. inner/outer rods changed...not even close to gettin into the guts...
Could have done this without steering rack removal.
DEFINITELY NOT A REBUILT , THATS A SAND AND PAINT ON A MANUAL RACK , HE SHOULD TRY A HYDRAULIC RACK AND PINION !!!!!!
@@jewelsog423 hahahHhaha u do it
i read all these comments and yet I still watched it anyway just to see for my self... I'll keep searching
That rack and pinion is simple to rebuild,no port holes,because fluid doesn't run through it.
Hydraulic rack and pinion has lot more seals,a whole other ball game!
I thought I would see you actually rebuild the rack...

I will have to make 1 my self
😆 to rebuild the whole thing wouldn't be economical anymore
I guess he forgot to record the part where he rebuilt the rack. 14 minutes I'll never get back. THUMBS DOWN!!
Excellent job. Just note. Wheel Alignment is required just to be safe if you believe the rack is spot on. 2 things to look for
1- steering and front wheels are aligned straight
2- wear in one side of your tyre depends on how many klm you drive just visually inspect wheels if they wearing out on the inside and out dailt for a few weeks or as often. Otherwise great video
Very informative, but I suggest even though you counted the number of turns off the threads of the tire rod, to properly install the new tire rod ends, that an alignment should always be done for safe measurement. If the alignment is not done, you can wear out your tires faster and all that work you just did could damage the steering rack, and you will have to do this process all over again. A couple of bucks to have an alignment job done isn't bad.
All you need is a tape measure. Measure the distance on the old rack and pinion from a fixed point on either side to the center of the tie rod end bolt, then install the tie rod ends to the same position.
You may have the steering wheel off by a number of degrees due to the new gear having a different null value, in which case you only have to move the tie rod ends over a turn at a time until the null value for the steering gear is lined up with the neutral value for the steering wheel.
Your suggestion is based upon What, exactly? What you have been told your entire life? Use a little sense, if the original gear has the tie rod end centers separated by 60" and you have rebuilt the new gear with the tie rod end centers separated by 60" before installation in the vehicle, what magical difference will the dealership alignment guy make? Do you really have to consult the magician to verify what plain measurements state?
But hey, it's Your Money.
I know this video is kinda old but great tips and explanation. The price for repair is ridiculous. Thanks for showing how this can be done.👍
was does it cost like 1500.00$ to fix a rack and pinion on a GMC Sierra, Damm I am about to call the scrapyard and give them my truck, I just bought summer and winter tires, full brakes both L and R side 1500.00$ brake job and brake lines, new A/C Compressor, now my rack and pinion is gone, Grrr,, wish I was able to fix it myself like these tool guys
What happen on some guy press dislike, don't they have a brain !?
My 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS has a lot of steering wheel play, watching these videos from you have helped me understand what is going on with my vehicle. I feel a little more confident talking to the mechanic 😅
This is good for a manual rack, but a power assist rack will be considerably more complicated and a lot more can go wrong including hydraulic fluid leaks at best, and a hard pull in either direction when the vehicle is started as well.
The best advice to anyone wanting to tackle a power assist rack, is to look for a good video on that kind of rebuild and do not use this video as a guide otherwise you will get in over your head quickly.
I have 40 years in the auto repair business myself, and this job on a power assist rack is a nightmare even for technicians. Often times, parts aren't available or are cost prohibitive where a remanufactured rack might be the only option.
Comment is worth its weight in gold. Thanks for saving me a giant head ache
Never use tie-wraps to enclose the ends of your gators on sterring racks (or drive shafts). Water will get in there very easily and you will be rebuilding or replacing your rack again. Always use Oetiker clamps. Trust me.
Is that german?
Before I saw this video. I honestly just took the rack end but didn’t count the amount of turns it took. I just took em right off 😓. Nd now I need advice on how do I put it back on precisely. On a 1996 Hyundai Accent
Just eyeball it and go have an alignment.
This is just installing new inner and outer tie rods. Please.
once my oil regulator( I'm not a mechanic, something like an oil regulator) blew and the result was the steering became loose. The mechanic at the time after fixing the oil issue told me not to worry about the steering, it's not going to come apart. just oil on some bushings. Now in your video, I see the steering rack is held onto the car by some bushings. I wonder if those were the bushings he was referring too? 95 sc400 lexus. Your comment?
Rebuild would indicate going into the guts of it.. which is a lot more work
TurboFlush On a manual steering rack the only other thing are the two bearings on the pinion and the rack itself. These things fail rarely unless abused. In that case it's more cost effective to get an already rebuilt rack as it's really not a diy job anymore. In the vast majority of cases what you can see in the vid is all a steering rack needs. But you are right, there is a more rebuildy rebuild than this one :)
its not hydraulic, no seals.
Tom R
I missed that part. Lol
I stand corrected
Why do we call them manual, when we call the hydraulic ones "power assisted". Wouldn't it be more correct to call this kind of rack, a "mechanical rack" as it implies, PAS is automatic steering. Same with windows. Manual windows, automatic windows.
Forever Computing
"Manual" steering rack i indicates you must put the effort in.
"Power steering" rack indicates it is assisted with something other than manual. Commonly hydraulic.
Excellent video for the masses. Unfortunately, a lot of rack and pinions fail at the seals and leak (usually inside the bellows, or out through the inout shaft seal at the top), which is when they need to be replaced in full. I am seeking info now on what is involved to truly rebuild the R&P on a bench.
A lot of the common auto parts store brands of rack and pinion have very inconsistent product quality out of the box, and the markup on these can be substantial, as many folks have likely found when they receive a fat 4-figure estimate to do what is essentially a 2-3hr job on the average car.
Good video.. very well explained, but in my opinion, you're working to hard. I guess you had a reason why you removed the whole thing from the car. You do know you don't have to remove it from the car ?
I see video clips all the time here on RUclips, the other guys don't remove it. They replace it without removing the whole thing.
The only reason I can thing of why you removed it completely, is so we can see what you're doing.
Other than removing it completely, great video... Step by step,,, very good.
thats not a rebuild my friend, although its a great video on what you did , you didnt replace the oil seals inside the rack , you didnt check for bushing wear inside the shaft holes , I was trying to show a young boy that come to work for me the basic, so I just had to take the time and show him my self , But like I said you did a great video , thanks
Nice and simple presentation. Is it the same for Skoda rapid too?
Why go through all that trouble removing rack & partially rebuilding not to replace oil seals !
U should be an amg assemblyman the way you staked this claw washer 😂😂 haven't seen this older vid yet awesome!!!!
How much better did it drive after this rebuild??'Did it feel like a totally different car?? Great info on the rebuild, I didn't know you could rebuild these. Thanks
I have yet to drive the car :) The steering rack wasn't in bad shape to be honest. The inner and outer tie rods rarely fail, but I renewed them nevertheless. That white plastic bushing makes the biggest difference when it fails. There's a rubber bushing inside the car on the column. I fixed that too, there's a video. That's night and day difference and the biggest culprit of bad steering feel and play.
Well done. Exactly what I was looking for before starting to work on mine.
Thanks for the share. Well done. Question: do you need to grease that bushing at all?
You only replaced external parts, you did NOT rebuild the rack. Thumbs down.
i have a 2007 beetle 2.5 that is leaking power steering between the inner tie rod and the rack and pinion on the passenger side.. What could be causing the leak in that part?
hello, i’m going to do my carb conversion on a bmw m10b18 engine, but i still have to decide on which carburetor set i’m going to run, why did you chose the gsxr600 carbs against the carbs, lets say out off a yamaha r1?
That's a good question. I mention this briefly in my initial long bike carb explanation video. People fit Yamaha r1 carbs on almost everything, from 1.0 to 2.0 liters, because it's what seems to be the most common thing on the internet, and everyone replicates everyone else and it starts a chain reaction. R1 carbs are not a good idea on a smaller engine because the low end will be very pathetic and the engine will be kinda lame everywhere except at high revs. This might be good for racing I guess, but on the street it's useless. My engine is a 1.6 liter and the carbs I'm using (I switched to Honda CBR600) have been shown to work better on a relatively small engine like that. Yours is 1.8 liters so the R1 carbs might not be a bad idea, but there's a lot of other factors still, like the intended use of your engine and other mods like cams, compression etc.
My hydraulic steering rack was leaking on my toyota corolla, so I replaced it with a new aftermarket one, it worked perfectly but after some months, my car was making weird noises when I move while turning, I searched about it but didn't get anything useful, went to a mechanic and he said this is a common problem with these cars, it was the bolts that mount the rack, he said that I need new OEM bolts to prevent that happening again.
excellent how to video. This guy is perfect presenter.
Thank you :)
Ah, this is not a hydraulic steering rack. Pretty interesting nonetheless. I'm trying to figure out just how the hell that the steering rack was knocking from the inside.
just pad for two rack repairs, now I will do it myself. Thanks for liberating me!
Nice video
While this video was helpful, it didn’t show how to replace the seals or bearings in the rack, so as for a complete rebuild this is incomplete!
Tx for the video! I need info on replacing a leaking seal or rebuilding a Chevy rack on a 2003 Trailblazer. Tx again
Not sure I would put a plastic zip tie. Would use a metal clamp, way more durable and secure.
Hi, does it have another plastic bushing in the other side? Thanks the video is so good.. Very well explained.
Nope, only on one side
I wouldn't call this a rebuild. You just put new tie rods on and a bushing. You didn't rebuilt any seals or orings.
Steering Fluid leaking from rubber boots at end at wheel side to GEELY car. actually there no locking clip at end of rubber booting at wheel side, means clip missed by mechanic when I took for repair.
Leaking means There is any oil seal/ "O"ring damage or locking clip problem??
Its enough to fix the clip or need to replace any oil seal??
Actual there is any oil seals in steering rack bar set??
There are two inner tie rods. But the white color rubber bushings shown in your video is only one. Anther thing is you put new grease on the tie rod and inserted rubber covering. why greasing is required there. Is it that that part is rubbing on some surface?Can you show little more details in the video and fixing back the steering rack assembly. I have this steering rack problem in my car which is Maruthi Suzuki (Swift Desire.) It makes slight noice while driving. will it stop if i repair the steering Rack.?.
Thank you for the video. It was however not a rebuild. A rebuild would have required disassembly & repair of the steering box as well. That aside, it was informative for those who have never replaced tie rods & ends & bushings.
A lot of people have said that already. But you said it in a polite and mature way, so thank you for that. Let me elaborate a bit. This is a rack from a 1987 car and there are a few reasons why I didn't replace the parts you mentioned. First of all they aren't available new anymore and the only thing that I can replace are the bearings. These virtually never fail and new ones are usually of poorer quality than the originals. The only option I had for a replacement rack is a quick ratio rack, which I am not interested at the moment. The other reason is that I am a DIY car enthusiast with the typical tools such a person owns and make videos to share with people like myself. Rebuilding the rack fully is a bit difficult for most diyers and honestly often doesn't make sense and is less cost effective than getting a rebuilt rack when one is available. When a new rack isn't available like in my case, it still makes more sense to get a good used one and just replace the studf I replaced in the video. I could have called the video how to replace inner and outer tie rods on a steering rack but the video really is a bit more than that, but it is also admittedly less than a full rebuild. The deal is that video titles have to be short and simple so this was my best option, although far from perfect. Sorry for the super long reply but I thought you might appreciate some insight into my side of the story :) thanks for watching and commenting.
@@d4a to be fair, you should change the title of the video. It’s misleading. You did a good job, but I watched the whole thing, waiting for the rebuild part that never came. It was a waste of my time.
This is NOT a rebuild lol... Its just a cleaning and replacing a plastic bushing and tie rods. I thought this was going to be an actual "Rebuild" which involves replacing internals, o-rings, ect... the most that was done was swapping the tie rods.
This is BS because replacing the external parts is not rebuilding the rack. Rebuilding it consists of removing everything from the rack housing and replacing anything that's worn, which includes all of the internal seals.
I love your channel and I'm not trying to be an ass, but this is not how you rebuild the steering rack, as the rack itself hasn't been opened. My RACK (not the rods) has play, and I hoped for a tutorial on how to fix this.
Manual steering ovehauling.Teflon bush more durable when compare with ordiary plastic bush
This isn't a rebuild. Just a paint job and new tie rod ends. If this R&P was leaking, this isn't going to fix the problem. Does this guy rebuild engines with a new coat of paint?
So you’re basically just replacing the inner and outer tie rods 😑 you don’t have to remove the whole rack unless you just want to paint it like you did. Anyways, good video.
I got my car steering rack overhauled and the steering has become very tight.. it's not possible to turn it with one hand . The garage is telling me to drive it for 1000 km and it will loosen up.. my car is merc w211 eclass.
I have a Lexus RX300 and can move the passenger side front tire from side to side a good 1/2” when it’s off the ground. The slack is not in the outer tie rod and there is movement in the rack boot so the slack is inside there. Is that serviceable or just replace the entire unit? Thanks!
Replaced RAC and Penn on 2013 B M K Licion And It Only Work for 6 hours Got Very Hard Could New Part Be No good
I like the way you performed the job ( super care ) in what you are doing !!! But I did not see how you replaced those seal and refill fluid or grease ???🙁🙁🙁
If a racks been taken from a vehicle to be changed then that dudes got some money to burn labour costs kill you never mind the price of a rack, plus 9 times out of 10 most of suspension components suffer as well 👍👍👍
So what causes the rack to leak on the driver's side? I have a Nissan Murano and even after replacing the rack, I still have the same problem. The right side is leaking.
its crazy how clean metal can look under all that dirt.
All car same or not?
This is for the rack and pinion type.. If a recirculating ball type i think it's a little bit different..
Hi, I want to change my power steering pump on my 2005 Toyota Highlander and I don’t know how to remove it any tip on how to remove it and the pulley thanks
No, this video is not a rack rebuild. You should rename the video correctly because you do good work and it would be nice to be able to keep your channel for learning and reference, but not if videos are incorrectly labeled and therefore do not cover what you said they cover.
Please consider naming properly but also keep making videos
You didn't rebuild the steering rack. You replaced the tie rod ends and boots and repainted it. In fact, you didn't do anything to the rack itself. Change the title of the video...sheesh
Ur explanation is very good explain the power steering
Why my Nissan car 1987 model power steering noisy ? Your good explanation please .
Think the rack in my ST162 Celica is leaking, was thinking of rebuilding and resealing it as I have to get rid of all the leaks to register it
I recently had a break in my suspension arm pin, one wheel turned 80 degrees out and quite had an accident. why the steering Rack did not break?
The steering gearbox bearing part wasn't covered, or did I miss something? This addressed the tie rods, but not the big bit in the middle? (other than painting)
hi i have a leakage from my steering(toyota matrix 2005) in the buttom , how i can fix it please thanks in advnce
Thanks for the vid. I was planning to do this same rebuild with the rack on the car, but after watching this it may be easier to remove everything. Did the claw washers come with the inner tie rods or did you get them separately?
Car Dude Definitely a lot easier to remove it from the car then have to work in tricky and akward positions. The claw washers came wit the tie rods, but I got a set from Toyota as well just to be safe, they cost 2 dollars I think.
Do you have a part No.?

My 2013 Toyota Corolla a very loose steering.
Do you think I should do the same thing to my steering rack and then have it aligned?
Miguel Antonio Diaz First take a look at the part above the u-joint under your steering wheel. Hold the lower part steady with your hand and move the steering wheel. You will be able to easily tell if this part is the source of the play. Check out my video about how to fix steering wheel play.
No good recondition at all because I did 3 time recondition steering rack and steering power pop please don t doing bad job it's also the price £300 pds but no good I did change my car power steering pop 4 time still no work at all
NOT rebuit!!! but replacing plastic bushings.... wast of time
The name of the video is to rebuild the power steering rack this is not a rebuilt of the power steering rack I'm a retired auto mechanic he did not rebuild the power steering rack
So like, you didn't rebuild the rack at all... You reconditioned it a little bit I guess, but at no point was the rack rebuilt.
There was no reason, to remove the rack. It wasnt leaking, the boots were not damaged, the bushing were ok. No problem with the tie rods.
is it a similar procedure for a chevy silverado? can I get a replacement kit for it?. Nice tutorial. thank you

Nice video.i have a Daihatsu materia its rack is so noisy and I can hear its clunky voice on any bad road ..what is the problem?
This is not a rebuild. There was no need to take the rack and pinion out of the car for this. Could have saved a lot of time doing this while the rack and pinion was on the car.
Can u show video how to repair and remove steering rack BMW f45? More people to see yr video
Imagine calling this a steering rack rebuild video without actually rebuilding the rack.
Did I blink? All he did was replace the inner tie rods. We do that on the car. Thought he’d rebuild the rack
never use plastic clip for rubber boots!!!! It is expending when engine is heating. After all you'll lose your boots)))
The engine is in the back

I ve Honda CR-Z sports hybrid it has EPS, i m having problem with steering play, also when i hit some potholes ,a knocking noice come from pinion, i don't know what is the exact problem, please guide me
Good afternoon technician my vehicle has same problem of sterling rack it has some leaked how do going to help me.
thank you for sharing,? what happens when the right wheel is straight and the left is not an car can't drive...

What could cause break biding on Lexus IS300 front
at least hes not like the guys who says "guys" every 3 words. what English class tells them to say "guys" so much?
Rebuild? You only replaced the inner tie rods. Did I miss something?
How do you rebuild the centre part of the steering rack. Especially when there is play on the steering wheel
what was the symptoms before u resorted it ?? what was happening to ur car before u figured it was ur steering rack ??
Ist not so simple, cause some part should have been put in the same positon that the old ones are...sometimes people forget this simple caution.
My doubt is we didn't need to change the rack rod ,is it will definitely in good condition or all rack rods are good at all times?
I have a bolt on my 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan that apparently came loose shortly after an accident involving the underside of the front end, and now is back in the shop because the same bolt is sheering off. What bolt are they talking about? Is it in the rack? The problem was the severe play in the wheel that has been gradually getting worse. If insurance won't cover it (from last years accident) then I'll have to repair it myself!!
Probably a bolt holding the rack to the chassis, but I'm just guessing, and that's all anyone can do without seeing it first hand.
All you did was change inner tie rod ends. Rebuild includes the inner seals, most important
How can I order or buy the claim for rack and pion for Nissan Altona 05
Thanks for sharing the video. I have a Nissan Serina 93 model. After replacing Third rack, this time I will rebuild it. Thanks
Why does the Alignment shop sent me away for a rack end replacement before they can set the alignment?
I must have blinked and missed the bit where you rebuild a power steering rack
changing tyrods is not rebuilding a steering rack 🤬
