Product Line Details: Remanufactured Rack and Pinion Assembly

The Cardone Remanufactured Rack and Pinion Assembly line focuses on restoring original equipment performance through a thorough remanufacturing process. Each unit is verified to meet original equipment design specifications, including torque angle sensor functionality and steering input accuracy. This ensures that the 1A-2037 part number delivers consistent steering response and durability comparable to new assemblies.

Technical Description and Features

This electric rack and pinion assembly is designed with a notched and pointed input shaft to match specific steering column interfaces. The assembly includes inner tie rods but excludes outer tie rods and mounting brackets, allowing for tailored installation based on vehicle requirements. The black bellows protect internal components from dust and debris, extending the service life of the unit. With a total of 2.63 turns lock to lock, the steering feel is calibrated for precise control. The unit’s electronic circuit board supports integrated steering functions without requiring a steering angle sensor relearn (SDS) after installation.

Common Applications and Problem Resolution

• Restores steering precision in vehicles with worn or damaged rack and pinion units
• Eliminates excessive play or looseness in the steering system
• Addresses steering noise caused by internal component wear
• Replaces faulty electric steering assemblies with integrated electronics
• Improves vehicle handling and driver control responsiveness

Installation Notes and Tips

Before installation, ensure the steering wheel is held in a straight-ahead position to maintain proper alignment. This assembly does not include mounting hardware, gaskets, or seals, so these components must be sourced separately. The part does not require a steering angle sensor relearn (SDS) procedure post-installation, simplifying the replacement process. Verify compatibility with your vehicle’s make and model to ensure correct fitment of the 1A-2037 rack and pinion assembly.
