marinehrnt Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I'm trying to find a steering rack for my 2002 Legacy. The only options seem to be a rebuilt unit or a used unit from a wrecking yard. The rebuilt racks are selling for about $300 while I can get one from a wrecking yard for about $100. Is it worth the extra money to get a rebuilt one or is a used one from a wrecking yard usually ok? Trying to save money but don't want to get something that will be unreliable.

outbackusjunkus Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 If you're doing the work yourself, nothing wrong with a lower mile used rack. I've got 250,000 on mine. If paying for the labor, would probably consider new... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 subaru steering racks fail so infrequently that i would rarely consider getting a new one. ocassionally there are some really cheap rebuilt ones on ebay. the subaru racks are so good though that i'd almost want a used, particularly on a car your age. it would be extremely odd for you ever to need to replace it again. should be able to find one for $50-$100.
