The CARDONE 27-7556 Remanufactured Steering Gear restores factory steering feel and control on heavy-duty Dodge Ram 2500/3500/4000 trucks. As the core of the power steering system, this gear box turns steering wheel input into precise movement at the wheels, delivering confident handling under load, towing, or work use.
Each unit is completely remanufactured to OE standards, using 100% new O-rings and lip seals for a leak-free seal and long service life. Internal shafts are resurfaced to exacting tolerances to minimize friction and prevent premature seal wear. Every steering gear is 100% hydraulically tested for proper flow, pressure, and performance before it leaves the factory.
A durable rust-inhibitive “Cool Dip” coating covers all exposed surfaces, providing long-lasting corrosion protection that won’t crack, flake, or peel. Built using original-equipment cores and validated for OE fit and function, the 27-7556 is a direct bolt-in replacement for specific 1994–1996 Dodge Ram 2500, 3500 and 4000 models with 8800 lb GVW (where noted).
The environmentally friendly remanufacturing process reduces raw material and energy usage by up to 80% compared to new production.
