99 windstar rack leaking
Hello;
two weeks ago there was a steering noise in our van I did some asking around and made the choice to change the pump. all was good for about three days but the noise came back I checked the fluid and it was low added some thinking there may have been air in there. it has been a week now and I have had to add fluid three different times.
I crawled under it today and found the problem it is leaking from the rack, there is a nut with a tabbed washer on the back/aft side, almost right in line with where the steering wheel arm goes in. My question is what is under the nut? Can I replace that seal or even get the seal? if it can be done then I wouldn't have to drop the rack and that would be nice.
thanks
Ben
