What does this rack and pinion bellows kit do?
The neoprene boot covers the steering rack shaft and flexes with it, keeping water, dirt, and debris away from the inner tie rod and rack seals.
Which vehicles does the 103-3063 kit fit?
It fits the 2007 C230, 2006-2007 C350, 2007 CLK550, 2007-2008 CLK63 AMG, 2006-2008 SLK280, 2009-2011 SLK300, 2005-2011 SLK350, and 2005-2010 SLK55 AMG. See the Buyer's Guide tab.
Is this a split boot?
No. It is a one-piece neoprene boot, not a split boot, so it slides over the rack shaft during installation.
What comes in the kit?
The kit includes the boot and two clamps for a complete installation. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct procedure.
What are signs the boot needs replacing?
A torn, cracked, or split boot that lets contamination reach the rack is a common sign this part may need replacing. Diagnose the cause before ordering.
