Product Description
The CARDONE 26-2626 Remanufactured Rack & Pinion Assembly is designed to restore precise steering performance and smooth handling while meeting or exceeding original equipment standards. Each unit is meticulously remanufactured using advanced processes that ensure reliability, precision, and long service life.
All internal components, seals, and O-rings are 100% new and O.E.-style, providing a perfect hydraulic seal and leak-free performance. The rack housing and critical surfaces are precision-machined to eliminate internal fluid bypassing and extend product life. Every assembly undergoes 100% hydraulic testing to verify flow, pressure, and leak integrity before shipment.
A protective anti-corrosion coating ensures durability even under harsh driving conditions. Environmentally responsible remanufacturing reduces energy and raw material usage by up to 80%, making it both a sustainable and cost-effective replacement option.
