Detailed instructions needed to Replace rack and pinion on 2001 Chrysler Concorde

Quite involved. Better get a repair manual for Concordes. Did that on a 1995 Chrysler Cirrus. Need heavy ratchets and sockets, also an 18mm crow's foot wrench. A long tedious job, recommended that it be done on a lift, but I did mine on my driveway.

Yes, I think it has one. If the question is how to replace, its a simple r+r, but then you must bleed the rack with weight off the front wheels.

A bad seal in the rack and pinion would have caused low pressure from fluid by-passing the seal. This also would have caused noticeably increased effort to steer the vehicle. Excessively high pressure would indicate an issue between the power steering pump and the rack, and since the hoses have been replaced I would focus on the pump. PS, find a real mechanic, not a parts changer.

well, the outer tie rod screws directly onto the inner tie rod. The inner tie rod is connected directly onto the rack and pinion. I will need a bit more info to figure out what problem you are having.

These details will help.
Thanks.

Maybe you can drill it out but chances are you may have to heat it with a torch!!

as far as removing steering from rack youll need repair manual for your car. bolts, drill a hole in middle of bolts and pound proper size E-Z out into hole. turn ezout to left to remove. good luck.

you have internal problem with the rack and pinion assembly ,needs new r&p installed they mainly come remanufactured ,not cheap! good luck

your vehicle has a transverse mounted engine and most newer vehicls have rack and pinion steering versus a shaft going to a gear box with a drag link and sway bar type steering system. most full size suvs have the gear box set up. some suvs like dodge durango have both a gear box and a rack and pinion. your vehicle has only the rack and pinion

pretty decent job ahead first jack up car support with jack stands remove front wheels remove nuts on tie rod ends remove tie rod ends from spindles with tie rod end tool or tap with malet were they sit to loosen them hit the spindle area not the tie rod or tie rod threads then dissconnect power steering lines from steering rack also disconect steering linkage to rack there should be 2 main bolts holding assembly to frame remove them should free rack i know that car may have a unique design were u may have to remove inner tie rod ends first if it has those round bushings that always go bad disconect inner tie rod ends behind engine on top of steering rack then remove rack from wheel well replace those inner tie rod bushings u may be able to leave outer tie rod end connected to spindles and u may be able to get to the sterring rack from behind engine good luck
