Steering Intermediate Shaft Replacement Guide ?

Why Is This Part Essential?

The steering intermediate shaft is a critical link in your vehicle’s steering mechanism. It connects the steering wheel to the main steering gear, allowing you to control your direction smoothly and safely. Without it, steering input would never reach your wheels.

How Does It Work?

When you turn the steering wheel, the intermediate shaft transfers your effort down to the steering rack or box. It features universal joints or flexible couplings to ensure smooth motion, even as the car hits bumps or turns.

Consequences of Failure

If the intermediate shaft is damaged or worn, you may notice clunking noises, increased steering play, vibration, or even loss of steering control. Immediate replacement is crucial for your safety on the road.
