Product Description
The CARDONE 27-7501 Remanufactured Steering Gear Box is engineered to restore OE steering feel and response on classic trucks and SUVs. As the heart of the steering system, the gear box converts steering wheel rotation into precise wheel movement, delivering predictable handling and confident control.
Each steering gear is completely remanufactured and re-engineered to match or exceed original equipment performance. 100% new O-rings and lip seals are used throughout to ensure long-lasting, leak-free operation. The input and output shafts are resurfaced to exacting specifications, preventing premature seal wear and significantly extending gear life.
All units undergo 100% hydraulic testing to verify correct fluid flow, internal pressure regulation, steering effort, and leak resistance. CARDONE’s rust-inhibitive Cool Dip coating penetrates and covers all external surfaces, providing a uniform protective finish that will not crack, flake, or peel.
Built using CARDONE’s eco-conscious remanufacturing process, this steering gear reduces raw material and energy consumption by up to 80%, making it a durable and environmentally responsible replacement choice for classic GM, Dodge, International, and Plymouth applications.
