Installation Notes
For 2007-2009 Toyota FJ Cruiser installation, use OE fluid, install an in-line filter, and flush the hydraulic power steering system when replacing the rack and pinion assembly with inner tie rods for warranty validation. The pressure port thread size is M16 x 1.5, the return port thread size is M17 x 1.5, and the hose port type is seat. Verify front-end alignment after installation and inspect the return line for restriction or kinks if steering does not return to center.

The remanufacturing process also reduces energy and raw material use compared with producing a new part, while replacing all rubber sealing components to support long-term reliability.
