alright well i got my new steering rack in and its smoother and almost back to they way it was but i have to get an alignment before i can tell because i think i have a bit of a toe in. neways, i found out that the aftermarket outer tie rod was so stiff when moving it back and forth compared to stock. my mechanic said that the stiffenss from that could make my steering stiff ontop of a bad steering rack. Could it be that if i just replaced the outer tie rod so the movement would be smooother, would that have fixed my problem earlier? another thing is that my mechanic filled up my power steering with Power steering fluid instead of ATF. I told him what you guys told me but he say's he uses it on SR's as well. Should i get it drained and fill it up with ATF. and i went to a lube shop before and they didn't really bleed my ps. all they did was put some tube in my ps resivour to suck up and then replace it with new fluid. is that also possible? thanks. sorry for all the questions.
