Get one with the VAPS module.

Possible to take the VAPS from the original MM and install it on model that does not have?

I've had a hell of a time trying to get mine out with the rack on the car so I can R&R it.. Even bought a specific socket to fit it.. Let us know how it goes

Isn't the Rack Marauder Specific and not available any longer?
I'd have it rebuilt.

Apparently the steering ratio is quicker on the MM rack.

For about $500 dollars you can get a refurbished steering rack from FORD. I tried pricing them out only to discover what was said above. Apparently the steering ratio is higher on the merc.
