2009 Ford F-150 Repair - Part 2 - Removing the Rack and Pinion

Putting the Milwaukee 1/2: Impact Drive Model 2767-20 to work in this one!
We had been postponing this task as it seemed very difficult from some of the people who had some videos on it.
This video is for educational purposes only but is pretty much a step by step of all the tasks we did to change out our Rack and Pinion.
1. Bungee the steering wheel down so it can't spin.
2. Take the tires off
3. Remove the hydraulic hoses to the rack and pinion
4. Disconnect the tie rods
5. Disconnect the Intermediate Steering Shaft
6. Remove the bolts for the Rack and Pinion
7. remove rack and pinion
Check and make sure that your tie rods are in good shape as well as the Intermediate Steering Shaft.
We bought the rack and pinion from Napa Auto Parts along with the steering fluid.
