Installation & Warranty Best Practices
-
Flush the power steering system thoroughly and install an in-line filter to protect the replacement unit.
-
Use OE-specified power steering fluid only.
-
Verify sector shaft spec (33 splines / 3 blanks) where noted on vans and certain HD trucks.
-
Visual appearance may vary from OE; fit & performance are equivalent.
