Steering rack

[Kneale Brownson]

Ideally, we all would be able to see that a leaking rack got replaced as soon as the leak developed.  Ideally, there would be no vehicle or other piece of petroleum-lubricated equipment leaking anywhere.
   
  But if you have to drive your leaky rack to a repair place, why pay $20 a quart for the fluid?  You don't want to run the system without any oil.
   
  I don't think anyone suggested using a cheaper oil as a "fix".  Rather, as a substitute until repairs can be made.  At least that's how I've used the alternative oil I've used.  Until I could fix it.

you suppose all of the fluid leaks TO?

awesome stuff to have in the drinking supply.

a rack is 400$ and a few hours. suck it up and fix it. a puddle under the
front of your car is SO white-trash-chic.
