Man you look so calm with these problems and doing these videos with lot of optimism, I could make 3 freaking channels full of videos of my car xDDD, blessings.
What a guy! you definitely helped me figure out what’s going on with my car. I got into a small fender bender on a bad weather day and my my steering wheel has been doing this.
I feel your pain. My rack replacement has been a monster on my 2003 Wrx wagon. Subaru had some evil mad scientist design this setup. Had to remove the factory useless U-frame that is apparently for US crash standards and isn’t even equipped on JDM models. Once that was off 3 days of cussing and not getting the new rack in was finally a victory. I think steering is one of the worst trouble shoots on a car by far. Hope mine holds the rest of time bc I don’t feel like doing round two anytime soon!
If the rack & pinion fails again, it would mean your hydraulic pump is the culprit that causes the rack & pinion to fail. I learnt that after changing mine 3 times
damnnn, I was considering changing mine again but the issue is a leak that I can't really pinpoint. its either coming from the driver side boot or one of two power steering lines
08 dodge charger my steering wheel is at like a turn and half to the left to go straight and it pulls to the right bad bought it like this and don’t know what is wrong
I hit a big pothole HARD the other night and my steering wheel goes all the way around when i turn and back up into my parking spot. I got a mobile mechanic coming in a week to see whats wrong. I too hope it isn't anything major like a whole suspension system. Nothing we can do tho.. We gotta have our cars to drive. I wish you all the best in your move to Texas.
Thank you for sharing this video and I hope you move to a good area in Texas because there's potholes everywhere Good luck maybe when you come to Texas your life change for the best wish you all the luck in the world 👍
Good stuff man! Get those bolts and get that rack and pinion nice and tight. Congrats on completing your probation and making the life move! Best of luck in the new state.
My Chevy blazer is doin the same thing right now and I’m not sure what to do, should I take it to the shop or should I get the parts myself and attempt to fix it??
If you do the steering rack yourself, plan on getting an alignment right afterward because any adjustment to the outer tie rods will require an alignment. Even if you swap your old tie rods onto the new rack you purchased, one side might be too short or extended too far. Plus you'll have to make sure that your steering wheel is straight as you're installing the new rack but more than likely, when you get an alignment, it'll be corrected. Those are the only import things you should keep in mind. Its up to you if you want to pay extra and have a mechanic do it. If you're pretty comfortable with working on your own car, you'll find that it isn't a difficult job. Another thing, you'll have to bleed the powersteering system
see im having a problem where my ps fluid drips into my timing belt and some other internals im losing it as fast as i pour it in cant wait to see how expensive this is great vid tho homie
Thanks man, hopefully you just need to replace the hoses. If you can make sure that the leak is coming from where the hose is connected to the pump, you can probably use a zip tie to tighten down the hose to temporarily fix the issue
Yo bro, been busy still I see. Haven't been on youtube in a couple weeks almost a month really. Dope to see your learning still, keep on doing the vids bro. This summer I'll be doing a j swap. I'll be recording it for sure. I'll let you know when I start doing the swap
The rack mine has a clunking noise this my 2 rack I been though and I keep getting it from o Riley and it’s a aftermarket one I’m tired of wasting my money. Can I still drive with my brand new one if it’s still maken a clunking noise
Hey I’m currently having the same prob. I too ran over a bump and now my steering wheel acting up meaning it’s loose, I’m hearing a clicking sound and it’s somewhat hard to turn. I have a 2015 Nissan Altima, would this be the same prob? Caz I went to a local auto shop and they said the steering coupler wants to change but I have to be mindful as well caz they could be lying to charge me more because I’m a girl.
There’s a few tests you can do yourself if you’re hands on with your car but if not, hittup another mechanic to see if he says the same thing. If you’re issue is just like mine in the video, where turning the steering all the way to one side doesn’t turn your wheel all the way, then it could be the steering rack but there’s def a number of things that could be the issue
Shit I may have this issue. Been narrowing the noise down and this sound exactly the same. I went from inner and Outer tie rod, CV joints, control arm, and nothing. Held unto the the intermediate shaft and still noise. With that case I think this is it, rack and pinion. SMH
Bro if you want to be safe replace the bolts with SAE bolts you can get from Threads of The South they specialize in SAE bolts. Homey Depot and Lowe’s type bolts don’t have the strength to keep up with the stresses that your rack will put on it. Chances are AutoZone O’Riellys or Advance might even have them also. You seem like a cool dude I’d hate you get into an accident for a $3-4 dollar bolt. Anyway good luck homey✨
@@Rawrkee it’s not so much that their quality of bolts suck it’s just that you want to recognize early when dealing with automotive, sae parts are engineered for the stresses and vibrations that come from on the road driving especially if you’re making moves that require split second timing for hairpin maneuvers. You definitely want to know you’re bolts aren’t gonna be sheered off with the actual turn lol good blessings bro
The Steering Rack is the issue when you notice that your wheels are not turning as far as they usually would when turning your steering wheel. Mine was very subtle at first but over time that was when I could visually see that my steering wheel no longer lined up. So if you notice that when you're turning and your car doesnt turn as sharp as it used to, its a good indicator that the steering rack is going bad. Good luck with figuring out the issue!

Yea mines make noise after a remanned factory one don’t wanna do round too it’s just waste of time and money hopefully my car doesn’t get messed up
My lifted Silverado having the same clunking noise 😢
I had the same problem on my mercedes 202 a couple of days ago. The mechanic changed the steering shaft, and it's back to normality now
Damm ! Those bumps can be problematic !!! Hope you can solve that ! Staystrong💪
Yeah man, with the Lude🏎 being much lower, the bumps hit much harder in the heart 😂😂😂

damnnn, I was considering changing mine again but the issue is a leak that I can't really pinpoint. its either coming from the driver side boot or one of two power steering lines
what if you don’t have any power steering
Ah man this happened to me yesterday on my civic was praying it wouldn't be a rack 😭
That steering wheel looks crazy.😂
08 dodge charger my steering wheel is at like a turn and half to the left to go straight and it pulls to the right bad bought it like this and don’t know what is wrong

congrats on the new job and being off probation g. stay clean and enjoy life
ah man, I didn't even remember mentioning that in the video. Thanks bro!
@@Rawrkee np
That clicking sound is from you breaking the clock spring. Replace it or your airbag won't function.
Deng, good to know! My SRS light has been on ever since 😂😂
Good luck man on ur transition to Texas!! Also how hard was it to wrap your car? I have a prelude on my channel and I’m gonna wrap it. Thanks!!
Thank you for sharing this video and I hope you move to a good area in Texas because there's potholes everywhere Good luck maybe when you come to Texas your life change for the best wish you all the luck in the world 👍
Bro socks and sandals! My type of guy 👍
hope you changed your power steering fluid and maybe add a inline filter also
thanks man welcome to Texas home of the 4x4
Good stuff man! Get those bolts and get that rack and pinion nice and tight. Congrats on completing your probation and making the life move! Best of luck in the new state.
How much did it cost to replace that ? My car is doing the same thing

ahhh schnapppppp! Are you doing a 2jz swap or from an Accord!?!?!
@@Rawrkee j32 type s swap either tl or cl. With a 6 speed
I have an SH , as well , I thought about this keep me posted ! Hope to see the finish project y
Wish I would have seen your video before you removed the steering rack a second time. Could have saved you some time.
lmaooo, was just looking around at symptoms of a bad rack for my lude not even realizing ur in a lude😂
LOL! What a coincidence 😂😂😂 Do you happen to have a back steering rack?
The rack mine has a clunking noise this my 2 rack I been though and I keep getting it from o Riley and it’s a aftermarket one I’m tired of wasting my money. Can I still drive with my brand new one if it’s still maken a clunking noise
Good job Wow two steering racks already.Very expensive.
funny thing is on semi trucks they turn the wheel like that on purpose to make it difficult
Not sure if you are still around this page but where did you get your steering rack from?
What steering wheel is that?

@@Rawrkee thanks I will do just that tm and check with another repair guy
@@mickaylia9123 what did other mechanic say ?
that was scary af haha
It's your steering shaft I'm having same problem
My cherokee frame rotted and the steering gearbox just fell off of it… first i lost the ability to turn right… eventually it didnt turn at all lol
Right mine does that, the colume
Shit I may have this issue. Been narrowing the noise down and this sound exactly the same.
I went from inner and Outer tie rod, CV joints, control arm, and nothing. Held unto the the intermediate shaft and still noise. With that case I think this is it, rack and pinion. SMH
my g37 tried to kill me yesterday needs a new rack , love it tho 🤣
My just grinds extremely bad and gets hard and locks up hopefully it don’t get like this before I replace it 💀

AH deng, thanks for the info bro! I didn't realize that Home Depot and Lowes had lower quality bolts
@@Rawrkee it’s not so much that their quality of bolts suck it’s just that you want to recognize early when dealing with automotive, sae parts are engineered for the stresses and vibrations that come from on the road driving especially if you’re making moves that require split second timing for hairpin maneuvers.

I don't believe you drove that car with a loose steering like that 😳
Got damn how big was the bump lol
mannn, idk. but my car is pretty low hahaha
My car is doing the same thing but only when I turn but my steering wheel is not stuck upside down does that mean I need one for my fiat?
The Steering Rack is the issue when you notice that your wheels are not turning as far as they usually would when turning your steering wheel. Mine was very subtle at first but over time that was when I could visually see that my steering wheel no longer lined up. So if you notice that when you're turning and your car doesnt turn as sharp as it used to, its a good indicator that the steering rack is going bad. Good luck with figuring out the issue!
Was it second hand the rack and pinion you installed ?
Yeah, I had used a refurbished one found on ebay
Sounds like you lost your bolt on your lower Steering shaft
A probably wasn't both ton all the way cause my car did that and my screw was out so I how to scoot all the way on
Yes my steering wheel does do that. Thank you
Glad to hear you zeroed in on the issue!
May be intermediate shaft
This is indeed weird
Yea just a lose Rack and pinion. If it was damaged you will notice a leak
I have the same issue.
God bless u today . Read ur Bible. Pray and accept Jesus Christ in your life. Be encouraged. Sai a prayer for you.
Amen God is good❤
amén
The f*ck
Accept jesus as a prophet and pray to the god jesus bowed and prayed, then your are good to go
Jesus is not God ffs
