Product Details

CARDONE’s Rack and Pinion Hydraulic Transfer Tubing Assembly line focuses on restoring the hydraulic connection between steering components with new parts rather than reused tubing. For vehicles such as the Pontiac Sunbird, Oldsmobile Achieva, and Chevrolet Corsica, this helps address steering-system wear with components engineered to match original equipment requirements. Part number 3L-22108 is intended for applications where the transfer tubing assembly is the service item, and it is built to support proper form, fit, and function across the listed model years.

This part cross-references no listed aftermarket part numbers for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Hydraulic steering fluid leaks at transfer tubing connections
• Corroded or damaged rack and pinion tubing
• Loose or deteriorated tubing seals and O-rings
• Steering performance issues caused by compromised hydraulic transfer lines
• Fitment problems from worn original tubing assemblies

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify the vehicle’s year, make, and model before ordering.
• Some 1982-1986 applications require a flat sided input shaft for proper fitment.
• Inspect surrounding steering components for wear before installation.
• Replace any damaged sealing surfaces during service to help maintain hydraulic integrity.
• Confirm routing and connection points match the original assembly before final tightening.
