Before I start, I'm a long time lurker lol and yes I have used the search. A lot of good info on this site!
I have 2005 TDI Jetta Auto car with ~200K miles. My power steering has developed the notorious leaky rack. My plan was to order one from Idparts.com. My question is I planned to go ahead and do some PM work while I'm in there. I planned to replace both power steering lines along with the rack. Does anyone have any recommendations for other things to replace? Bushings? Tie rods? Ball Joints?
Also do I need anything else other then just ordering the rack when replacing it? Should I spring for the new bolts to?
Thanks.
