    Price of getting rack, plus seals, plus time, and possibility of getting it wrong, equals something like this being a pretty good deal, HOLDEN COMMODORE VT VX VY VZ Power Steering Racks | eBay

    Yeah nah def don't try reco one from wreckers. A Haynes Manuel wouldn't have anything like that in it anyway. Theirs a good joint in dandenong called national power steering. They supply holden with racks. I got a full reco one from them for $220 with warranty.

    i'd choose a re manufactured over a re conditioned

    $260 is a very good price
