I have been losing power steering fluid at a rate of 1-1.5 oz a week. I removed the undercover and notice its coming near the rack & pinion near the driver side. I tried looking up a schematic for this and I am not sure I can match up the leak location with the schematic. Nonetheless my main concern here is there a way just to replace one part if the rack an pinion?

The cost for a new system is over $1000 and I dont want to spend that type of money on this.

I tried searching by related posts, but not luck
Any help getting a link would be helpful

Thanks
Jim

Check with IoS for the seal or Marvel for a rebuilt unit.

Thanks Brian,

What or who is LoS and Marvel. I did a google search, but all that came up was Marvel comics and a refridgerator parts company.

Thanks for the link.

Looks like I'll go that route $295 is a good price.

I really appreciate it

Jim
