Steering Rack problems - help!! 850 1996

By "worn out" do you mean the gear rack is worn and loose or is it leaking from the seals. If it's just leaking a little try the Lucas additive. If the gears are worn you'll need a new rack. Can't remember seeing any steering rack problems posted here in a long time but the strut bushings do go bad routinely on the 850's. If you replace the bushing(s) you'll need a spring compressor and an alignment will be needed afterwards.
