What It Helps Address

• Excessive steering play or looseness
• Hydraulic steering fluid leakage at the rack assembly
• Hard or inconsistent steering effort
• Steering response issues caused by worn internal rack components
• Noisy steering operation related to a worn rack and pinion unit

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify hydraulic port sizes, input shaft dimensions, mounting-hole spacing, and vehicle power steering configuration before installation. Inspect related steering components, including hoses, tie rod ends, and alignment settings, so the replacement rack can be installed on a clean, properly serviced steering system. Because outer tie rods are not included, confirm the existing outer tie rods are serviceable or replace them as needed during the repair.

Quality Assurance

BBB Industries supplies remanufactured steering components for OE-style replacement needs. This rack and pinion is remanufactured and built to the listed dimensional and fitment specifications for the confirmed Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury applications.
