Keep grit and water out of your steering rack and hold its grease in place with the Dorman - OE Solutions Rack and Pinion Bellows Kit 541-527. It installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner and the 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma, and services the bellows on both the left and right sides of the rack-and-pinion unit.

  • Serves both sides: Covers the left- and right-side bellows locations on the steering rack.
  • Seals out contaminants: The bellows shield the inner tie rods and rack from dirt, debris, and moisture while helping retain the rack's lubricant.
  • Moves with the steering: The accordion-style boots flex as the inner tie rods travel with the front wheels.
  • Application-matched: Designed to install on the listed Toyota models.

The bellows are the flexible boots that seal each end of the rack where the inner tie rods pass through. Torn, cracked, or split boots let grease escape and allow grit and water into the rack. If damaged bellows are the cause of grease loss or contamination, this kit replaces them; diagnose the source of any steering complaint before replacing parts.
