So if they have to remove the steering rack.. any mods worth doing while that out

Best steering rack mod is a one piece rack. You lose adjustment fore and aft, but it feels tremendously more direct and there's zero chance some bushings in a joint would wear and cause slop.

I doubt anyone makes a solid rack for this car, though, and losing the adjustability is a turnoff for a lot of people.

Glad I put off installing rigid collars
They have to remove subframe to pull steering rack and how much you bet they would throw them out.
technically they are a one time use just like crush washers so if you remove the subframe you would need new collars anyway.
