kid has clunk in steering. found a link online that says it might be worn rack guide.  
it is a “crossbolt” type device that applies side pressure to the internal rack ram  
has a big hex screw head that you undo to remove the guide.  
the guide wears and clearance opens up and lets rack click.  
is this a typical rack adjustment found on lots of racks or only a few like the 4runner?
