Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year before ordering and confirm the mounting hole diameter and overall length against the original part. Inspect adjacent steering linkage components during service so worn parts are replaced together when needed. Because this is a steering component, proper alignment checks after installation are recommended.
