Steering Gear Seal Set for Hydraulic Assist 🛠️

Restore your power steering gear to factory-tight sealing with a complete set of precision O-rings, lip seals, and dust caps. This set stops fluid loss, keeps dirt out, and brings back smooth, light steering feel—perfect for hard-working 4x4s and high-mileage SUVs.

Why you need it

Power steering needs pressure to assist the wheel. Heat, age, and contaminated fluid harden old rubber, letting ATF bypass. Fresh seals prevent leaks, protect the pump and rack, and keep steering response crisp and quiet.

How it works

Each seal sits at critical points: pinion input, rack ends, and spool valve body. Under pump pressure, sealing lips flex to hold fluid on the high-pressure side while wipers block grit. Correct sealing keeps the valve centered so assistance is smooth and linear.

If it’s worn or broken

Typical signs: wet rack boots, red stains under the front end, whining pump, heavy wheel at low speed, and fluid foaming. Driving like this overheats the pump, scores the rack shaft, causes wander, and can lead to sudden loss of assist. 🚨

Tech tips

Center the rack before teardown, polish shafts, coat new seals with ATF, torque to spec, flush lines, and bleed the system after assembly.
