steering shaft to rack leak?
 

Searched for a little while with no luck on what I'm looking for.

I have a slight power steering leak, finally found where it was coming from and I'm trying to decide how to go about it.

The leak is coming from where the top of the valve housing/gear housing or whatever the proper name for it is (red arrow in the picture below). Looks like there is a o-ring or something there where its seeping out of.

Is that housing (circled in red) where the 4 hard lines run into removable and/or replaceable? Or should I just get a whole new rack and pinion.

I haven't really found any parts other than the whole rack or tie rod boots.

Any advice?

I had the same leak... Replaced it with a rebuilt rack... no leaks now :D

I spent soem serious time searching for that O ring, but wasn't able to find a replacement. Different rack or a rebuilt rack is the only way to solve the leaking issue.

Thanks for the tips, guess ill just get a new/rebuilt rack. Not a big deal.

@2tonecoupegrl - i pm'd you back. Thanks tho

Replied to you!

I also had the same problem and went with the rebuild rack

rock auto.com sells rebuild kits for about 50 bucks but I was afraid it did not have all the parts I needed
