Christian or Darkstar,
Who was supplying these "dirty, the tie-rods flopped around freely, etc."
racks to DMC Garden Grove?

different rebuilder.

snip--->My steering rack (1) was replaced earlier this year at DMC Garden
Grove
and I had all sorts of problems with the replacement rack (2). There was
way too much slop in it. Every time I turned left and brought it back, the
steering wheel wouldn't come back to center (even though the car was going
straight). Dan (from DMC Garden Grove) sent another rebuilt rack (3) up
which a local shop put in. Again, same results. These racks were dirty,
the tie-rods flopped around freely, etc. Finally, I had Dan get one of Rob
Grady's racks (4) for me and send it up. When the part arrived it looked
completely different than the prior racks. It was sparkling clean, glass
beaded, brand new boots, tie-rods stiffer than... well, it was nice to
say the least. :)
