Post Z3 Steering Rack Upgrade

So my steering rack is pretty much done for at 120k miles. I researched my options and I'm looking to upgrade to the Z3 rack due to the better lock to lock steering ratio.

After much searching, I dug up this thread:
http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=12941

That thread seemed to have died. Do I need all these parts to upgrade to the Z3 rack? What are crush rings and cadmium banjo rings?

Z3 Steering Rack - Part #32131095575
2x Hexagon Screws with Flange - Part #32136751257
2x Hex nut with Flange - Part #31351095452
Piping - Part #32131096109
Power Steering Reservoir - Part #32411097164
New Crush Rings
Cadmium Banjo rings
New Power Steering Lines


I'm trying to find the cheapest remanufactured Z3 steering rack. So far the cheapest I've found is at http://www.carsteering.com/addtocart...80-00224.html#. I contacted them and they said that this is neither a Maval or a ZF remanufactured rack -- they remanfacture their own racks. He said they would only give me $50 for my old steering rack

I want to replace the motor mounts while I'm down there too. Any recommendations on what kind and where to purchase them?

Thanks!
