Delphi Rack and Pinion Bellows Kit P/N:TBR4245
Keep water, grit, and road debris out of your steering rack with the Delphi Rack and Pinion Bellows Kit (TBR4236). It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, including the 2004-2009 Toyota Prius, 2004-2008 Mitsubishi Endeavor, and 2008-2011 Subaru Tribeca; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. The bellows seal the front rack-and-pinion assembly's inner tie-rod joints, holding lubricant in and contaminants out — a split or cracked bellows lets grit reach the rack and can lead to accelerated wear.
Signs a bellows may need replacing include a torn, cracked, or grease-covered boot at the end of the steering rack, often spotted during alignments or tie-rod service. If a failed bellows is the source of grease loss or contamination, this kit replaces the worn part and reseals the rack ends.
