Steering Intermediate Shaft Replacement

Why You Need This Part ?

The steering intermediate shaft is a crucial connection between your steering wheel and the steering gear. This component ensures that every turn you make is accurately transferred to the wheels. Over time, wear and tear or exposure to harsh conditions can damage the shaft, causing steering lag, clunking noises, or even loss of control.

How It Works ⚙️

This shaft transmits the movement from your steering input down to the steering rack. It is designed with precision joints and splines that allow for both rotational movement and flexibility, adapting to the up-and-down motion caused by road bumps while maintaining tight steering response.

What If It Breaks?

If the intermediate shaft fails, you may notice excessive play in the steering wheel, odd noises when turning, or even a sudden difficulty in maneuvering. Ignoring this issue can lead to unsafe driving conditions or complete loss of steering function. Replacing it ensures safe, precise, and smooth steering.
