What is a reasonable price to pay for a secondhand power steering rack in an l series

$50? I'd get one from a Lib. Likely to be newer.

are the liberty ones are a straight swap?

Yes and no if you use a liberty one you will have to swap the rack ends to the L series ones. If you use a rack from a turbo car you will need to enlarge the hole where the steering shaft goes through the cross member. L series lines are interchangeable with liberty ones (end threads actual lines are different)

Would this be the same go for MYs?

Will the Lib rack bolt up to the MY crossmember?

MYs have an opposite thread configuration so the rack ends wont interchange with the liberty ones.

I remember hearing that some people have put L racks in MYs

Just incase your interested, a while back I priced up a L series power steering rack brand new. Most prices around the traps were in excess of $600 !
