Looking for good LS-L steering rack
I would like to know the condition, trim, and mileage of the vehicle it came from. OEM only, no remans. If possible quote shipping to Alaska 99507.

U R sure it is the rack. Subaru dealer diagnose mine as a rack leak. Put it up on friends lift and found a pin hole in the steel line. $120

The original rack was destroyed in an accident. I'm using a re-manufactured unit which worked fine for a little while. The car sat for a some time after, was moved around a bit and eventually lost power steering and developed a nasty whine/moan which we thought was the steering pump. Installed a brand new pump, no change. I'm not aware of any leaks. I had the engine pulled out around the same time the noise started.
The car does pull to the right quite a lot, but until I hear back from the body shop I won't know if that is due to suspension geometry issues or the rack not functioning properly. There's nothing really pointing me to anything but the sound of the moan.
