Help restore tight, controlled steering with the A1 CARDONE rack and pinion (P/N 22-1050), a remanufactured steering rack built to meet or exceed O.E. fit and performance. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2008-2009 Chevrolet Equinox, 2008-2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport and 2008-2009 Pontiac Torrent; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and to confirm your engine.
A rack and pinion converts the rotational input from the steering wheel into the side-to-side motion that turns the wheels.
- Meets or exceeds O.E. fit and performance: re-engineered, built, and tested as a remanufactured original-equipment unit.
- New seals throughout: 100% new O.E.-style o-rings and lip seals, plus new spool valve seals and rack donut seals where applicable, installed to guard against internal and external leaks.
- Precision-surfaced rack: surfaced to precise specifications to help prevent leaking between chambers.
- Tested and protected: 100% hydraulic testing checks flow and leakage where applicable, and a protective coating is applied to help extend the life of the unit.
Signs this rack and pinion assembly may need replacing include fluid leaks, loose or excessive steering play, hard or uneven steering effort, and knocking when turning. Diagnose the cause first; if a worn or leaking rack is behind the symptom, this assembly replaces it. The remanufacturing process also reduces the energy and raw material needed to make a new part by 80%.
