Steering racks are the core component of rack-and-pinion steering controls. Gears, or pinions, slide back and forth on a toothed steering rack, which correspondingly turns the wheels.

Most steering racks can last 150,000 miles, but wear and tear do take their toll. Symptoms of impending failure may include vibration, dead zones in steering range, steering stutter and a grinding noise when turning.

If you have noticed any of the symptoms, your steering rack may be viable for replacement.

Includes inner tie rods.
