Seal your steering gear against dirt, moisture, and road grime with the Mevotech Supreme Rack and Pinion Bellows (MS30405). This flexible boot covers the front left end of the rack-and-pinion steering assembly, shielding the inner tie rod and rack from the contaminants that lead to premature steering wear. It installs as a direct-fit replacement across a broad range of applications, including the 2002-2003 Nissan Altima, 2000-2006 Nissan Maxima, 1995-2000 Toyota Tacoma, 2001-2005 Dodge Stratus, 1993-2005 Lexus GS300, and 2003-2006 Nissan 350Z — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
A torn or cracked bellows lets grease escape and lets contaminants reach the rack — signs this part may need replacing. If a failed bellows is behind that exposure, replacing it with the MS30405 restores the protective seal. Inspect the inner tie rod and rack for existing damage during installation.
