Town & Country / Grand Caravan - Fighting Rust, Oil Leaks, And Faulty Parts To Replace Steering Rack

Diagnosing the front suspension and replacing the P/S rack on a 2006 Town & Country with almost 200,000 miles and ALOT of rust. I was figuring out the teardown as I went so some of the information may be out of order and I tend to over-share in a few places, but I faced so many hurdles on this job that I figured there was still some good information that needed to be shared in case someone ran into the same issues I did.

I found this video which gives more insight on adjusting the new power steering rack, so the front end can be somewhat dialed in before getting the vehicle professionally aligned: https://youtu.be/HkFh6LfDDtk
