TERREPOWER formerly BBB Industries Rack and Pinion Assembly P/N:201-0151E
Restore precise, effort-free steering with the TERREPOWER (formerly BBB Industries) Remanufactured Power Steering Rack and Pinion Assembly 201-0154E. This premium-quality remanufactured unit drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2012 Ford Explorer (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications), converting the steering wheel's rotation into the linear motion that turns the front wheels while power assist reduces steering effort.
The rack and pinion is central to how your vehicle steers: the pinion gear meshes with the toothed rack, and hydraulic power assist helps translate wheel input into smooth wheel movement. Signs the original may need replacing include hard or uneven steering effort, a whining noise when turning, excessive play or looseness in the wheel, and power-steering fluid leaks. If a worn or leaking rack and pinion is the cause of these symptoms, this assembly replaces it. Always diagnose the cause before replacing, and follow the vehicle service information for alignment and torque specifications.
