The later SN95 racks are a improvement over the earlier ones with 99-04 V8 racks being the "best".   2004 would be the best year to seek with 03/04 cobras being the best after the '00R rack.  I have a Cardone SPR-ZM  03/04 cobra rack on my Fox, and a Cardone SPR-ZK for a 2004 GT on my SN95 and cant tell any practical difference on the street from each other.   As for steering racks, pumps, and misc replacement parts that LMR sells, it's all part-store stuff that you can get at your local parts stores or RockAuto for better prices.   The extra premium you pay is for LMR's excellent service, but sometimes it's not worth it depending on the part.  LMR used to repackage the part but I've bought some stuff from there that they just sent in the original manufacturers packaging.  Kinda disappointing to see a 50%+ markup on the same part I could have gotten off Amazon for $10</blockquote>
