Detailed Description

This PWR rack and pinion assembly, part number 42-1854, is made for 2002-2007 Mitsubishi Lancer models.

This part cross-references BBB Industries 309-0129 and Cardone Reman 26-2133 for the same application.

For drivers searching for a 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer rack and pinion, a 2003-2007 Mitsubishi Lancer steering gear replacement, or a direct-fit hydraulic rack for Mitsubishi Lancer steering repair, PWR 42-1854 provides the specified OE-style fitment and connection points needed for service work.

What This Part Helps Address

• Steering play or looseness in the rack and pinion assembly
• Fluid leakage from worn internal seals
• Noise or rough steering operation from a failing hydraulic gear
• Incorrect steering response caused by internal wear
• Replacement needs after steering system damage or high-mileage wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify spline count, shaft diameter, line fitting sizes, and end-to-end length before installation. Because mounting hardware, mounting brackets, and outer tie rods are not included, transfer or source the required related components as needed for the vehicle. Always inspect hydraulic lines, seals, and steering linkage condition during replacement, and bleed the power steering system after installation.

Quality Assurance

PWR states that this rack and pinion assembly is USA Engineering Approved and individually tested for leaks, pressure, noise, and function. That testing helps confirm the unit is ready for service on compatible Mitsubishi Lancer applications.
