I would also use some fine emery paper to polish up the rack piston and rack cylinder also no big deal. The hardest part is adjusting the rack worm nut. If it has no slop and moves side to side freely don't mess with it. If it is tight or really sloppy you are going to another level of effort which I can help with if you contact me. The pinion aduster nut on top of the box is easy to adjust if you make a 16" long 10mm allen wrench which goes down through a gap in the exhaust manifold. A long 3/8" extension with a universal and 19mm socket goes down the same hole to the lock nut to secure the adjustment. Easy PZ. I will send photos if you need them.
I thought about rebuilding my box also but the list of 22 specialty tools shown in the manual quickly changed my mind. How did you work around that?
