Beck/Arnley Rack and Pinion Bellows Kit P/N:103-3123
Keep the steering rack's inner tie rod and gear protected from grit, road spray, and moisture with the Beck/Arnley Rack and Pinion Bellows Kit 103-3158. This bellows (boot) flexes with the steering rack as it strokes side to side, sealing out contaminants that would otherwise wear the internal components and shorten the life of the rack and pinion. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2021-2025 Lexus ES250, 2013-2025 Lexus ES300H, 2013-2025 Lexus ES350, 2016-2022 Lexus RX350, 2018-2022 Lexus RX350L, 2016-2022 Lexus RX450H, 2018-2022 Lexus RX450HL, 2019-2022 Toyota Avalon, 2018-2024 Toyota Camry, 2019-2024 Toyota RAV4, and 2021-2024 Toyota Venza — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
A torn or cracked bellows lets dirt and water reach the steering rack; if a failed boot is the cause, this kit replaces it.

Will this fit my vehicle?
It is an application-specific, direct-fit replacement for the listed Lexus and Toyota models. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact year and model.
