Cardone new rack and pinion units are built better from the start. Cardone uses what they've learned from remanufacturing, as to where--and why--original parts fail. Their engineers then incorporate improvements into the Select rack and pinions, making them better than the originals.

Cardone new rack and pinion units feature:

* 100 percent computerized testing at load to ensure reliable performance
* All rotating and actuating components are properly hardened, ground, and polished to ensure longevity of the components and their respective seals
* Cardone Select Engineered (CSE) Technology ensures that all rack and pinion/gearbox units meet or exceed OE-form, fit, and function
* Computerized spool valve balancing ensures exceptional feel and return-ability
* Environmentally-friendly coating provides a clean appearance and prevents rust
* Supplied with OE-grade seals, O-rings, and boots to provide optimal sealing performance and longevity
