    Lol damn!! That's crazy man. I guess I was wondering more along the lines of would my power steering just go out? (Still driveable but hard to steer) or would the shaft break out of the rack or something and make it undriveable.

    Best play it safe then sorry man. Could be something like a o-ring that failed or worse. My first tacoma had a rack and Pinon steering was pretty cool to maneuver around Walmart like a little Ford or something lol

    I know people are going to think I'm crazy, but try some of this:

    Amazingly enough it worked on my leaking rack with one bottle (they say up to two may be needed) It also stopped the rack from whining and made it sooooo smooth.
    I figured it was snake oil but it was only $14 at Walmart, figured it was a cheap enough gamble and it paid off.

    New water pump, both pulleys, thermostat, timing belt, A/C belt, power steering belt, alternator belt, and upper radiator hose. Still need to get a new alternator and change the tranny fluid. Got a bunch of dirt out of the radiator too in all the fins. Few weeks ago it got an oil change and air filter cleaned.

    Overall it should feel like a new truck.

    Lucas makes some great stuff. I put the transmission slip stuff in a automatic transmission when it's shifting rough and it fixes it.

A while back I discovered a subwoofer setup that I really liked and haven't changed it since. 12" Cerwin Vega vmax w/ kicker 1000watt amp in standard vented box...got the fkr ratcheted down in the back seat otherwise it'll go wherever it wants and I'm not fond of subwoofers flying into the dash :eek: don't ask me how I know
