Turns out it's my fault sort of. The rack comes with a red and yellow plug. You guessed it....I assumed the red was pressure. Wrong! I almost called DSE and completley forgot. There are som many little things with these cars. Probably going to need a new rack and pinion. They aren't that expensive so no biggie. Just a little delay.

Napa's reman looked like it had been drug behind the truck a few miles and painted by a blind man. Going to pull mine. Probably just the seal popped out under pressure.
