Play in steering rack
I assumed I needed to replace a tie rod, but I get in there and the steering column clearly has about 10-15 degrees of play.
It happens across the entire rack. Always takes a bit of a turn to "hook up" when turning the other way. https://youtube.com/shorts/RmMxZ58XiuM?feature=share Is this adjustable or am I looking at replacing the rack? |

Oddly it's completely drivable. Almost need to slightly tension it one way

Looks like play between the pinion gear and the rack gear.
@Ultramaroon is right as usual, time to replace. Plus that level of corrosion would have me worried. But to replace you are looking at like $700 in just parts so maybe just keep driving it until it feels not normal? |
