Just unplug the lines, put a bucket under em, and crank the whell both ways a few times. Cap the lines. There you go...manual rack;)

alot better than no fluid plus you can't run all of the fluid out cause tne rack is made to have fluid in it vs a manual rack wich is sealed with some kind of lub in it
