Product Description
The CARDONE 26-2726 Remanufactured Rack & Pinion Assembly restores precise steering control and original equipment (O.E.) performance through advanced remanufacturing and testing. Each unit is meticulously re-engineered, cleaned, and tested to ensure smooth operation, leak-free reliability, and perfect fitment.
All units are assembled with 100% new O.E.-style seals, O-rings, and valve components, guaranteeing long-term hydraulic integrity. A protective corrosion-resistant coating is applied to extend the unit’s life and protect against environmental wear.
Every rack undergoes comprehensive hydraulic testing for correct flow, pressure, and steering feel. By remanufacturing to exact O.E. standards, CARDONE offers an eco-conscious solution, reducing raw material and energy consumption by up to 80% compared to new part production.
