Product Description
The CARDONE 27-7504 Remanufactured Steering Gear is designed to restore precise steering control and OE-style feel on classic Ford F-Series trucks. As the central component of the steering system, this gear box translates steering wheel movement into accurate front-wheel response for confident, predictable handling.
Each unit is fully remanufactured and hydraulically tested 100% to verify correct flow, internal pressure, leakage, and steering effort. All O-rings and lip seals are replaced with brand-new components to ensure long-term, leak-free performance. Input and output shafts are resurfaced to exacting specifications to prevent early seal wear and extend service life.
The gear housing receives CARDONE’s rust-inhibitive Cool Dip finish, a penetrating protective dye that coats all exposed surfaces evenly and resists cracking, flaking, and peeling. As a remanufactured OE steering gear, the 27-7504 offers a direct bolt-on fit for a wide range of classic Ford F-100, F-150, F-250, and F-350 applications.
CARDONE’s environmentally conscious remanufacturing process can reduce energy and raw material usage by up to 80% compared to manufacturing a new steering gear.
