Technical specifications

Installation requirements

A steering rack is a safety-critical part and should be fitted by a qualified technician. After installation the system must be bled (hydraulic versions), tie rod ends checked, and a full wheel alignment carried out before the vehicle is driven on the road.

Signs of a failing rack include fluid leaks around the gaiters, knocking over bumps, excessive free play at the steering wheel and uneven effort when turning left versus right. Flushing old fluid and inspecting hoses and the pump on hydraulic systems is good practice when fitting a new rack.

Fitment checks before ordering

This rack is described as LHD and will not suit right-hand-drive vehicles unless the listing confirms otherwise. Please verify the part number on your existing rack and send us your VIN before ordering so we can confirm drive side, assist type and compatibility.
