Watch me remove the steering rack from my 2010 Nissan Xterra SE. While the replacement should be essentially the reverse of the removal, I did give a few tips to someone putting the rack back in as well. This should be the same for anyone with a stock 2nd gen(2005-2015) Xterra and similar year Nissan Pathfinders and Frontiers. I include a section of the video about tools needed, but also put a list in the description below. Hope this helps y'all and if it does, think about liking so it can help others as well!
