Beck/Arnley Rack and Pinion Bellows Kit P/N:103-2677
Keep the steering rack sealed against grit, road spray, and moisture with the Beck/Arnley Rack and Pinion Bellows Kit 103-2909. This steering rack boot kit drops in as an application-specific replacement for the 2002-2006 Acura RSX and 2001-2005 Honda Civic — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details. The boot mounts at the CENTER position on the rack and pinion assembly, protecting the inner tie rod and rack seals from contamination that leads to torn boots, grease loss, and premature wear.
Signs the original boot may need replacing include cracked or split rubber, grease slung around the rack, or dirt intrusion at the boot ends. If a torn bellows is the cause, this kit restores the protective seal at the center of the rack.
