We have two kinds available.  The first is ZF.  This is the original
manufacturer of the rack.  These sell for $740 plus a $150 core charge.
This would presumably be the best quality rack out there as it is rebuilt by
the OE manufacturer (I have never sold one so I don't know the quality).  It
is what they call a "short rack" that means it has no tie rods or boots
included.

I also sell a Maval rack.  These come with a lifetime warranty, boots, and
tie rods installed.  They are $295 plus $125 core charge.  I have installed
these racks myself and also sold quite a few with no problems.  I hope this
helps.

Thanks,
Ken Wilford

Hi All,
Could anyone tell me where to buy the best quality Power Steering Rack?
Mines leaking like a sive...
I've had trouble with it ever since I removed the tie rod ends.
I must have done something....wrong. :)
Thanks,
JC....
