I've just been told that the steering rack is bad on my '83 280ZXT (power steering). (Side question: what is best indication that is true, instead of just bad tie rod ends?).
I checked with Nissan, and they want $809 for original Nissan part. Advance Auto has one for $270! That seems a no-brainer, BUT!!!!
I know a lot of you do buy parts from Advance and other after-market suppliers. Also, a lot of you buy "experienced" parts.
Question is: would I be OK with the Advance part vs. original Nissan? Or should I try to find a used Datsun/Nissan part and take a chance it might not be better than the one I have now?
Appreciate your superior knowledge, AND help!
