Detailed Description

The Maval 9082M rack and pinion assembly is intended for steering repair on compatible Jaguar platforms where the original gear has worn, developed play, or no longer provides consistent steering response. This remanufactured unit is listed for Jaguar XJ6, Jaguar XJ12, and Jaguar XJS fitments from the 1973-1977 model years, and the application notes specify that three steering unit designs may be interchangeable when the correct steering shaft coupling and outer tie rods are used. The part number 9082M should be verified against the existing steering gear ID and thread requirements before installation.

For buyers searching for a Jaguar XJ6 rack and pinion, Jaguar XJ12 steering gear, or Jaguar XJS rack and pinion assembly, this unit is cataloged with important service notes that affect installation and final steering wheel alignment. Because the OEM pinion location can vary, steering wheel re-centering may be required after the rack is installed. The part number 9082M is also referenced by interchange listings 26-1912 and C39263.

What It Is Used For

• Replacing a worn rack and pinion assembly with excessive steering play.
• Restoring steering response when the original gear is no longer serviceable.
• Addressing fitment needs on Jaguar steering systems with 16 mm tie rod threads.
• Servicing vehicles where steering wheel centering is needed after rack replacement.
• Matching applications that require the correct steering shaft coupling and outer tie rods.

Installation Notes

Fitment is listed for 1973-1977 Jaguar XJ6 and Jaguar XJ12, plus 1976-1977 Jaguar XJS, and the notes should be checked carefully before installation.
