Default Where to source a manual steering rack?

Is there anywhere to get them anymore? I see that 944online and paragon have them listed as NLA. My PS rack keeps leaking more and more. Time to be done with it.

Ebay, here, 944online forum. They usually sell for about $350 used IIRC.

Mine was leaking too, did the de-powered mod. Pretty happy with it myself, and it cost me all of $10 and about 3 hours total time.

Good luck.

I would de-power it - I have a oem manual rack in my 951 and a de-powered rack in my 944 spec car and the spec car is so much better.
