My Power  Steering Fluid is leaking from somewhere
(been super busy and haven't had  time to crawl around
under there.). Is the answer to replace the  steering
rack...or can it fixed another way? If I need to
replace the  rack...what is the best source?

Kevin, there are two common places the power  steering fluid leaks.  Rusted
lines, most common and worn rack seals, less  common.  I sell a kit to replace
those rusty lines with industrial  quality 4000 lb steel braided hose for the
pressure line and standard hose for  the return line.  See my _Vanagon Power
Steering Lines_ (http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/hose.htm)   webpage for complete
details.  I also sell rebuilt racks, see my _Vanagon Items Forsale_
(http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/sales.htm)   webpage.
