Usually this kind of thing consists of mounting bracket U-bracket bolts, the steering shaft connection, and the tie-rod end castle nuts and split pins...that's if manual system, which probably on lairy Yank-sounding car like that will be power system, so throw in a couple of messy hydraulic-hose connections..which are usually either pipe-nuts or banjo-bolts..take care lostening thos as there is always the risk of damaging the hose-end connections by ham-fisted twisting of them with the wrench.

SOURCE: How do I remove and repair the rack and pinion on
unbolt the outer tir rod ends, remove lines from steerbox, unbolt rack, pull rack off of steering column, thats it, as for repairing it i doubt there is a kit for repairing it you'll most likely have to replace it

That job difficult even with a hoist and power tools, gonna try it??, get a manual, you gotta jackup the car fairly high cause you gotta lower the subframe, you will need line wrenches, crows foot sockets, tie rod splitter, personally i hate doing racks, just venting!!

Removing the rack and pinion assembly from a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am Se
To get the old rack and pinion off of the car for replacement involves lowering the sub-frame, removing the stabilizer bar, and pulling the rack out from the driver side of the vehicle.
Important: Get an alignment! Not only is it dangerous to drive with your steering out of align but it will also grate the tread off your tires in a matter of weeks or even days.
