What It Helps Address

• Loose or imprecise steering response
• Steering play caused by worn linkage components
• Uneven front-end feel during daily driving
• Noise or movement from a worn front inner tie rod end
• Restoration of OE steering behavior after suspension service

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, make, model, and front inner position before installation. The 1989-1991 Dodge Colt application requires a 46.13mm press-fit diameter, so confirm the steering gear interface before ordering. Because GEV196 is non-adjustable, alignment should be checked after steering component replacement. Use the included hardware where required and follow factory service procedures for torque and inspection.

Quality Assurance
