I have seen rebuilts on Ebay, not too expensive, If I remember correctly in the $200 range, and I also can't remember details re: core charge/refund.  Again, as I remember heavy and are shipped on a pallet.  Quality unknown, but they were from a large scale rebuilder, perhaps someone can comment further.

Subject: Need manual steering rack--can they be rebuilt?

Hello;

I'm looking for a manual steering rack in good shape, but also
wondering if anyone has successfully rebuilt them.
