[s-cars] Steering Rack Replacement

I put a JAC rack in my 5000, but no s-car experience or prices.    
They were the
standard for those cars and have maintained that reputation for  
excellence.

Several NE Audis have Griffith reman racks with good results.   
<www.griffiths.com/index.htm>
But we keep getting further away from vinnieb.  If the WorldPac is  
rebuilt, it must be from a
local repair shop with 10-20% mark-up  over  cost.   
<www.autohausaz.com > sells the rack with
an OE rebuild from ZF for $750.  I only found it by part # 4A1 422 070 X

This is about choices.  I guess more choices is good ?   Only if you  
can sort out what is truly a
quality rebuild if that's what is required.
