John I feel your pain..... The same applies to manual racks as well, I have one that needs new end bushings. And to starters, alternators, etc. Seems the parts sources are closely guarded secrets. I and others seem to have recently found parts and services for rebuilding diesel injection pumps without having to go for a trade-in rebuilt. I am rebuilding one now. Keep plugging away at it, someone's got to find a source for the steering components.
