Specifications:
FAA_A1:
Rubber seals, dust boots, wear items, lubricant(s), clamps and bearings are replaced 100%. Dampers, lock washers and drive belts are replaced where applicable.
FAA_A2:
Yes, all units produced are verified to function to O.E. design specifications. Potential O.E. failure modes are evaluated and validated improvements are made.
FAA_A3:
Yes, the steering wheel must be held in a straight-ahead position using a suitable tool to prevent rotation while the intermediate shaft is disconnected from the rack and pinion. Failure to do so can result in damage to the clock spring within the steering column. If rotation of the intermediate shaft is suspected, the clock spring must be removed and re-centered.
FAA_A4:
Yes, these systems are equipped with torque angle sensors in the steering column that need to be recalibrated after installation of the replacement rack and pinion.
FAA_A5:
Not recommended; radical modifications would be needed for installation of a modern electronic steering rack and pinion on a vehicle other than the O.E .Manufacturer intended application.
