Product Details
Maval 93331M is a remanufactured steering rack and pinion assembly for Kia Sorento applications from 2007 through 2009. The unit uses O-ring hose ports, a steel and aluminum casting, and a 2-hole mounting layout with 168.4 mm between mounting holes.

This part cross-references Cardone Reman 26-2437 for the same application.
Common Repair Uses
- Restores steering response when the original rack has internal wear
- Addresses fluid leakage at the rack housing or port connections
- Replaces a steering gear with excessive play or binding
- Corrects steering noise caused by worn rack components
- Supports repair of damaged tie rod end connections
Installation Notes and Tips
Compatible With 2007-2009 Kia Sorento, all models. The pressure and return ports are the same size, so the pressure line must be installed in the top port. If the lines are crossed, the upper pinion seal can fail from excessive pressure. Refer to warning label 640100 during installation. Verify port orientation, mounting dimensions, and steering shaft fitment before final assembly.
