At 300,000 miles the power steering rack puked on my car, the pump starved of oil and seized too. Since the gearbox felt funny and I thought the clutch might be slipping I did it all at once. Then the slave cylinder and the speed sensor didn't survive the repairs, and the flex coupling on the exhaust broke as soon as I fired the car up.
All in all about a week of work. If only I had been smart enough to scrap it...
Had I caught it soon enough I could have just swapped out the oil tubes on the power steering rack.
