    041 model is what I got when I plugged in my VIN to the McGeorge website. I plan to call them tomorrow to confirm and purchase.

    thanks

    Just wanted to update this thread and give @TnPlowboy some credit.

    I did enter my VIN on the McGeorge website when I searched for the rack, however, after I placed the order I got an email from the people there saying that the 030 was in fact, the correct rack model.

    When I told them I entered my VIN and got the 041 model they informed me that their website is run off a 3rd party parts catalog that does not always give the correct part number. Order is placed and the new correct OEM rack, bushing and outer TREs are incoming.

    What outer tie rods are you going with, I’m on my second set in 3 years with mevotech TTX or whatever. They are trash and I’m trying to find a legit brand.

    Yeah, I just can't imagine going anything other than OEM when they are that reasonable. Mine were $97.24 for the pair when I got them in December. Of course, that would have been during one of those sales. And that's including sales tax with free shipping.
