Replacment of Leaking PS Rack - What else should I replace?

hey, ive searched and asked in another thread, but didnt get the answer's i was looking for. i have had a leaking power steering rack for about the past 6 months. i have been trying to fix it with that lucas stop leak stuff to no avail. im ready to replace the steering rack, but my question is, what else should i replace/do i need to replace? the truck sway's at highway speeds and i hear alot of rattle's coming from the front. i offroad heavily, run oversized tires and the truck has 110k miles. thanks in advance for any help!

RunnerUp - I took the PS rack off my truck when I went to a solid front axle. It is for sale plus shipping. I am in Phx. When it was taken off, there were no leaks or slop. I am not thrilled about shipping it, but maybe we could work something out.

Something to consider.

hey, i appreciate the offer, but i believe the cost of shipping it and giving you what you want for it would rival the cost of a remanufactured lifetime warranty rack with tierods from my local auto parts store. that is, unless you live very close to florida and are willing to let it go for cheap!

my question is more about what else should i replace/check while im in there replacing the leaky rack?
