[QUOTE=PeaceWalker87;25011492]tightening that thrust nut will result in rack failure later on, no matter small the tightment adjustment is.. I've seen 5+ racks go bad bc of this adjustment.


Hi,

Can you quantify why you think adjusting the thrust nut would cause the failure, especially given the thousands of racks that have failed many of which would not have had any adjustment to the thrust plate.

And also the very reason that the thrust has been adjusted is because of an issue that could be the start of it failing before the nut was touched.

Steering rack is failing - try adjusting nut - steering rack fails - must have been the nut adjustment

Not saying you are definitely wrong, just after more evidence please
