Just a quick video showing how replaced a bad power steering rack in a 2001 Toyota RAV4 2wd.
I bought the rack at my local O'reilly with the thought that if it leaked, or if there were any problems, that we could just get it changed out under their warranty without having to worry about shipping it anywhere etc. The Toyota Brand Power Steering Rack was much more expensive than the one we got. Please note that this comes with new o-rings and says that they are for the power steering lines. But the lines didn't have any o-rings on them when I took them off, and there were no O-rings installed in the old rack. I think if you tried to put in the o-rings it would cause a leak as these use the flared metal contact surfaces instead. I will update the video description if there are any issues and/or if it doesn't last, but it's been about a month and so far the customer is happy with it and they were able to get the alignment done the following weekend after I put in the rack.

Torque Specs that I found online:
Power Steering Rack Mounting Bolts 101 Ft. Lbs.
Tie Rod End Castle Nuts 36 Ft. Lbs.
Steering Shaft Collar Bolts 26 Ft. Lbs.
Power Steering Hydraulic Lines 32 Ft. Lbs.
