Might have to rebuild mine as my steering is extremely stiff and the pump is pumping properly,I have no leaks:beatsme:,but the front wheel did hit a rock and now I have no power steering,everyone says that Its the rack and pinion ,so my question is Do they have a rebuild kit for the o7-11 tundras?as I have heard many horror stories about the re manufactured ones,and I cant afford it new.
Or could it be something else?I keep hoping:unsure3d:Thanks for any input you guys can share

First, inspect for leaks...this means you need to pull the boots off the rack. Not difficult, and must be done. If you find fluid, you need a new rack...rebuild kits aren't available to the public.

If no leaks, flush the fluid if it hasn't already been done, then check the alignment and the condition of the control arms and tie rods.
