Make of steering rack?

[kaye at telus.net]

My local mechanic recently had to do three replacements on a customer's car 
in one week.  The first 2 were CV tech and the last was a ZF so his 
recommendation is to go with the ZF first (even at the higher price).  The 
first CV unit didn't last the drive home.

YMMV
