The accordion-style bellows seal the ends of the rack and pinion assembly, keeping moisture and contaminants away from the inner tie rods and the rack's internal components while flexing with steering travel.
- OE-quality fit and performance for a straightforward replacement.
- Front steering protection: covers the exposed ends of the rack and pinion gear.
- Bellows kit for servicing the boots during steering repairs.
