Product Description
The CARDONE 22-2016 Remanufactured Rack & Pinion Assembly is precision-engineered to meet or exceed original equipment specifications. Each unit is completely disassembled, cleaned, and inspected. 100% new O.E.-style O-rings, seals, and bushings are installed to ensure leak-free, long-lasting performance.
Every rack is tested hydraulically for proper flow, pressure, and internal sealing, guaranteeing a perfect fit and reliable performance. Each unit receives a protective coating for corrosion resistance, providing long-term durability.
The remanufacturing process is environmentally responsible, reducing energy consumption and raw material use by up to 80% compared to new part production.
