Product Details

This Cardone rack and pinion assembly is remanufactured to restore steering control in the Mitsubishi Galant while maintaining OE-style fit and function. The unit uses brand-new premium components, replaced rubber seals, and a specialized lubricant to support long-term reliability. Cardone also performs a factory test drive to confirm operation and on-car communication before the part is released. Cardone 26-2132 is a direct replacement for Mitsubishi 4422A004 and MR589343.

Common Steering Issues It May Address

  • Hard steering during the first few minutes of driving
  • Power steering fluid leaks from the rack area
  • Whining noise after rack replacement caused by air in the system
  • Steering that does not return to center after a turn
  • Internal bypass or worn spool valve sealing surfaces

Installation Notes

Fits 2004-2012 Mitsubishi Galant, N/A. Install an in-line filter and use OE fluid. Flush the hydraulic power steering system when installing the rack and pinion assembly with inner tie rods for warranty validation. Verify front-end alignment after installation and bleed the system completely to remove trapped air. Cardone 26-2132 uses a 0.71 in input shaft diameter, 5.51 in input shaft length, 4 mounting holes, and a 52.63 in rack length.

Quality Assurance

Each unit is remanufactured to rigorous quality and performance standards, then factory test driven to confirm operation under extreme conditions. The process replaces all rubber sealing components, applies a specialized lubricant, and finishes the housing with corrosion-resistant coating for added durability. The remanufacturing process also reduces energy and raw material use compared with producing a new part.
