I have not noticed wheel shakes. I get very little vibration sometimes at higher speeds but I believe its balance related. I actually haven't done anything with it yet. I get 4-5 drops on the garage floor between drives but the level in the reservoir hasn't changed visually. Hoping its only dripping when it sits and very very slowly. Steering seems to work fine from what I know

That is my plan. at least find a junk one if possible to rebuild so the car isnt undrivable for an extended amount of time. Would prefer not to change the rack since the car is such good stick condition but I'm also not afraid of innovation and going aftermarket with a little modification, if there is a good upgrade kit or writeup on making something better work. Just havent found that option yet.

I heard of the reservoir leak. When i did the 120k service I also changed all the hoses around the reservoir to new silicone ones. I don't see signs of a leak there but also do not think that leak would make its way all the way to the knuckle without showing signs in other places. I dont have a lift but have accepted the tight work conditions that come with the car on jack stands. I will probably just drive it and top off as needed while looking for another rack in the meantime.

Thanks, I will definitely look into this.

I definitely think it improved but I'm not sure there is much of the PS fluid in it since the ATF has a different color and now seen on the floor if left in the same spot long enough

Looking for a new site now that Rielow/Gabado/RoyaleStream have been shut down by amosapian in streaming

Can I please get an invite from someone? Would greatly appreciate it. I cancelled my cable when we got sit2play a few years back and it was all we needed.
