This PWR rack and pinion assembly is built around hydraulic steering specifications with a 36-spline input shaft, 17.4 mm input shaft diameter, female inlet and outlet fittings, and a 1250 end-to-end length. The PWR 42-1926 is a practical OE-style steering replacement for drivers addressing worn steering gear performance on Nissan Armada, Nissan Titan, and Infiniti QX56 platforms. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Steering play or looseness at the wheel
• Fluid leakage from the steering gear
• Noise during steering input
• Uneven or inconsistent steering feel
• Wear-related failure in the original rack and pinion assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify steering shaft spline count, line fitting sizes, and mounting points before installation. Mounting hardware is not included, so reuse or source the required fasteners as needed. Because this assembly includes inner tie rods, inspect outer tie rods, hoses, and related steering components during service to complete the repair correctly.

Quality Assurance

PWR states that its pumps, racks, and gears are tested for leaks, pressure, noise, and function before release. The assembly is also described as USA engineering approved, supporting consistent build quality for steering system service.
