Icon5 Replace steering rack video needed
I need to replace my leaky power steering rack on my 1998. Trying to find a video on Youtube is proving difficult. Anyone got a link to a good how-to vid on this?

We need info on your truck, since the Torsion bar trucks use a slightly different procecure than the coil spring trucks.

No suspension mods other than add-a-leaf in rear. Torsion bars no coil over

The hardest part for me was clocking the rack to get it out.. Just take your time.

I saw that video. Sadly the audio is very low and hard to hear.

The visuals are good enough that you don't need audio. Just watch what he does and follow those moves with your own truck.
