The PO of my newly aquired Z said the rack & pinion was out on this car. He has taken out some of the bolts and says I must lift the motor off the mounts to finish taking rack out. Is this true? He says it shimmys so bad it slings the PS fluid out. Can anyone help with the removal of rack and pinion. Are there things I should watch out for? Any help would be appreciated.

Would the steering rack bushings for an 81 280ZX be the same bushings as a 74 thru 78 280Z?? I have looked at some online catalogs (Black Dragon Auto) and they list bushings for the 74-78 Z but not the 81 ZX. Does anyone know about this stuff??
