Play in Rack end on 98 Prado GXL

I had a 97 prado until recently, and had to get the rack replaced due to movement on the drivers side (from memory). Getting it done from Toyota was a mission due to the cost and their unfamiliarity with the task, so I asked around and found Turbo Steering in Flemington (1800 801 204 or 03 9376 8299). They replaced the rack with a reconditioned unit - they're specialists at reconditioning etc - did a good job - still cost a bit though. If you just want to replace the end and do it yourself, I would still talk to them. They will have the bits or be able to get them, and probably tell you what's involved. I didn't want to muck around with it, particularly when I had leaks, movement etc. See how you go.

Incidentally, when I went to sell the truck, the roadworthy guy reckoned I had movement in the rack, so I went back to Turbo Steering to see whether they'd mucked the original job up. Turned out to be a tie rod end, not the rack at all - I guess you've checked that on yours....?
