Hi, I am feeling a slight bit of play on the passenger side steering linkage at the ball joint on my 94 1LE. I don't believe it is a worn ball joint because I can see the play in the shaft coming out of the rack. Apparently, the 1LE for this particular year (maybe others) have a different rack than the Z28s. Does anyone out there know where I can get an exact replacement steering rack or where I can get mine rebuilt?

I'd do a lot of research first on the 1LE kit for that year as I'm under the impression the rack was a normal z28 rack.
On the cheap and quick, I'd say put the front end up in the air and rotate the steering wheel from one stop to the other and get an exact turn count. Perhaps someone else on the board can do the same with a normal Z28 and ya'll can compare. From my notes (and I helped a buddy order a 95 1LE) the 4th gen cars all had normal z28 racks. Costas cars and such... |

I spoke with original owner who had replaced it once before and he had told me that the 1LE was different. He couldn't remember who he had done the rebuild/replacement.
