Description
The CARDONE 22-1035 Remanufactured Rack and Pinion Assembly is engineered to restore factory steering precision, control, and reliability for mid-size GM sedans including the Chevrolet Malibu, Pontiac G6, and Saturn Aura. Each unit is carefully remanufactured to OE standards, ensuring a perfect fit, consistent steering feel, and extended service life.
Every rack is 100% tested for hydraulic flow, pressure, and leakage to guarantee optimal performance under all conditions. All O-rings, seals, and spool valve components are replaced with brand-new OE-style materials, eliminating internal leaks and ensuring smooth operation. A protective anti-corrosion finish safeguards the housing, and precision-machined surfaces prevent cross-leakage for long-lasting durability.
As part of CARDONE’s eco-conscious remanufacturing process, this rack reduces raw material use and energy consumption by up to 80%, making it an environmentally responsible replacement option.
