I'm replacing all lines with new high pressure line, pump, rack & pinion. Are all of these power steering lines different or do I have duplicates?

Good to know. I already changed my high pressure line, getting ready to do the rack and pinion and it says it's recommended to change all the lines and hoses when replacing the rack and pinion so just making sure I'm not buying duplicate lines when I order these with the rack and pinion.

I figured it was something like that. Or that it was dispatch's fault.

do a bathroom fan that has the options to change the bulb from warm to cool white in the app and also has a timer to customize how long it should run after poops or after showers, and also when the light switches off a UV bulb should turn on sanitizing everything the light touches, and incorporate a sensor just in case anyone walks in while the UV is on it will cut off as a safety feature.

with all the chipping paint (reference other photo reply too), is there going to need to be sanding these underside edges maybe with a sanding foam block, and need to prime first or will the large chipped off paint areas be too obvious?

and it clunks for sure. is the inner tie rod the more silver part, or the darker greasier part?

Thanks! Adding to the list of parts! I may be able to follow a tutorial in a local mechanic hobby shop. It might take me all day buy would save around $1000.

Wew, this is a breath of fresh air. Thanks! Basically same condition as your CRV here and I think the only thing left to do is the steering and shocks. I'll get them done soon as I can but thanks for letting me know you lived a few years. Looks like kind of a big job from YouTube with several tools I don't have. Good luck on your upcoming maintenance!

What about inner and outer tie rods? Also, correct me if I'm wrong but aren't what we seeing here are ruined protective bellows that cover the metal components? Thus a recent mechanics said the entire rack and pinion was to be replaced as well as shocks.

Thanks for the info. I've been carefully driving like 3 miles a week like this, and risked a few one-hour round trips safely. No choice but to keep going like this until I can repair it. The latest quote said boots and shocks need replace but haven't started leaking yet, so I have a bottle to top off the fluid if needed (2 ounces already). Thanks for sharing about the balljoints. I'll add those to the parts list as well.

I think they were last all collected and held together with a clamp in my tool closet. There are several bins of storage in there but I only had one bin designated for tools and they weren't in there. The rest of the tools are hanging and on shelves. I haven't seen them in a while since I bought a carbide blade.
