Product Description
The CARDONE 26-2632 Remanufactured Rack & Pinion Assembly is precision-engineered to restore your steering system’s performance to like-new condition. Built to O.E. specifications and tested for reliability, this unit ensures smooth, accurate steering response and long-lasting operation.
Each rack and pinion undergoes complete disassembly and remanufacturing, including 100% replacement of O.E.-style seals, O-rings, and internal valve components. Every unit is hydraulically tested to confirm proper flow, pressure, and performance before leaving the facility. A protective corrosion-resistant coating is applied to extend product life and durability under real-world conditions.
By choosing CARDONE, you’re selecting an environmentally responsible part — our remanufacturing process reduces energy and material usage by up to 80% compared to producing new components.
