Yup I'm talking about the rack /joint. I'm turning the steering shaft by hand on the 1st segment of the steering rod just before it gets to a Heim joint thats bolted to a bracket on the frame. The housing stays put for the most part, its just the outer limits of the rack out-put shaft that moves. Of course the housing must be moving a little bit or the shaft wouldn't move. Should have taken a picture, my pictures communicate better than I.
The shaft is not bent.
