Swap out a worn 2007 Toyota RAV4 rack and pinion with the Atlantic Automotive Engineering Rack and Pinion 4577N, a new, 100% tested manual steering rack. A direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2012 Toyota RAV4, it turns steering-wheel rotation into the side-to-side motion that steers the wheels. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific details.

Manual racks like this one are typically paired with an Electric Power Steering (EPS) column and are popular on import vehicles as well as some domestic models. Catching a failing manual rack early and installing a quality replacement may help avoid a far costlier EPS column repair.

  • Inner tie rods included: each rack and pinion assembly is supplied with inner tie rods.
  • Dirt protection: new bellows, secured by OE stainless steel clamps, are designed to keep dirt and debris out and guard against premature failure.
  • Built to OE design: each unit matches the original equipment design specifications.
  • 100% inspected and tested: every unit is inspected and tested in the USA before shipment.

Signs this part may need replacing include excess play in the steering wheel, clunking or knocking when turning, wandering on the road, or steering that feels uneven or binds. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the steering system first, and have the wheel alignment checked after installation. AAE sells its new manual racks without a core charge.
