The Power Steering Rack and Pinion is the central component of a vehicle's steering system, providing the precise control needed for a safe and comfortable driving experience. This assembly works by using a pinion gear attached to the steering column, which meshes with a horizontal rack. As you turn the steering wheel, the pinion moves the rack side-to-side, which in turn steers the wheels. The "power" assist, whether hydraulic or electric, reduces the effort required to turn the wheel. A worn-out or leaking rack and pinion can lead to symptoms like a stiff steering wheel, fluid leaks, or a noticeable play in the steering. This complete replacement unit is a direct-fit solution, including all the necessary components to restore your vehicle's steering to factory-level performance and provide reliable, responsive handling.
