So it sounds like if you are getting one from the junkyard, make sure it is the replacement. For the price, time invested in getting it from the junkyard, and risk of it being worn out, personally I would go with a new one. I have been burned too many times with trying to save a few bucks at the junkyard on a critical part. Heck, it costs less than a fillup now.
Here is one I found with some info: http://**************.com/search/node/rack+damper
If anyone has had problems with this parts source, please let me know. I looked at Fastlane's parts catalogue first but did not see it listed.

Your Indy is not correct concerning the Rack Damper Bolt controlling the fuel pressure. The fuel injection pressure is controlled by the Pop Pressure of each of your injectors and the pressure from the Fuel Supply Pump is controlled by the Overflow valve on the side of the Fuel Injection Pump Housing.
