Default Steering rack question

What rack part number are you guys using when you replace your racks?

I have the FE2 suspension and from what I've found while looking, it seems that the only AC Delco option available is a remanufactured rack.

The part number I've found is:
26062311

Let me know if any of you have used this rack or if maybe any of you have found a different part number. And also where you have purchased your racks from.

Thanks,
Jason

I have the FE4 suspension and just purchased a reman rack and pinion. GM 88991056, acdelco 36-16537. I haven't installed it because the wrong rack was in the box, it was for a buick fwd. I got another from the dealer and it matches, but haven't installed it.

If you have the luxury of time, you could sent out your rack to "Turn One" for a rebuild....

What did you do to flush and bleed the power steering system?
