Mevotech Supreme Rack and Pinion Bellows Kit P/N:MK9446
Keep road grime, moisture, and grit out of the steering gear with the Mevotech Supreme Rack and Pinion Bellows Kit (MK9316). This kit supplies the front-left bellows (boot) that seals the rack and pinion assembly, holding lubricant in and contaminants out so the internal components stay protected. It installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 1981 Nissan 810 and the 1982-1984 Nissan Maxima (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications).
A bellows that has cracked, torn, or dry-rotted lets dirt and water reach the rack, which can accelerate wear inside the steering gear. If a split bellows is the source of the problem, this kit replaces it.
Signs this part may need replacing: a cracked, split, or dry-rotted boot; grease slung around the steering rack; or contamination reaching the rack. Diagnose the cause before ordering.
