    Where to get reman steering rack?

    Looking for suggestions on a good source for a remanufactured steering rack.
    Thanks.

    I'm not too sure rack doctor is what it used to be or even around at all anymore.

    That was the popular one. Haven't heard of another source in a while..

    I've been using a local guy here in California, so maybe that's something to look into- local rebuilders.

      Thanks.

      Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a local rebuilder in the Massachusetts area, and I haven't found any reputable sellers of a reman ix rack.


      I've read good feedback for Advantage Steering in CA, so right now I'm leaning toward having them rebuild a rack and having it shipped back East.

        rack doctor disappeared after a massive flurry of scamming clients. he ended things super ugly.

          Who do you use in California and what do they charge?

            I go to California Axle Supply in Huntington Beach

            Racks are about 195-275 depending on the car, steering boxes are about the same and axles are around 120 usually.

            Been using him for some time now. Good guys

              Google sais the 325ix rack is different, but surely the internals are the same similar/same as normal one. (obviusly check this before ordering things..)

              E30 steering rack rebuild from Classic Bimmer Bits, your go-to source for E30 How-to and DIY


              This doesn't look outrageously difficult, and ECS sell a bunch of different kits
