Hey guys, my steering rack was getting sloppy then recently it started to leak from the passenger side of the rack. I'm looking around for a new or rebuilt rack the OEM is too much $$ for my '97. I was looking at the Detroit Axle rebuilds cause I've heard OK things about them then I came across the Hex brand of racks on Amazon
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HPTPVTI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A36FCRXFCR9ZYN

the listing says they are new and I've asked the supplier to clarify and they say they are new not rebuilt. Price is right I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience with these racks or has any advice in regards to what i should pick up.

It does not look to come with tie rods at all. Putting a new rack on old worn out tie rods would not be a good fit, steering might still be sloppy. The Toyota ones are like $120 each for the inner and about $40 for the outer, so that's another $320.00... that Toyota rack isn't looking too expensive now huh?

I bit the bullet and bought a Toyota rack. My first one lasted 200k miles so here's to the next one...
