Power Steering Replacement

My Miata doesn't have a lot of power stuff. No power windows and no power door locks. The Miata, though, has a power steering and it's the most important power stuff for me.

I decided to replace the rack-and-pinion steering as well as the power steering pump to refresh the steering feel. The services cost a lot but you can enjoy the great ride for the next decade.

The repair service was provided by Taylor Automotive Service.
