Product & Technical
Should the power steering hoses be replaced?
Hoses should be replaced if they appear brittle or if there are any kinks or leaks.How can I tell if my gear box is a standard or reverse rotation?
In a standard rotation gear box, the input and pitman shaft rotate in the same direction. The shafts turn in opposite directions on a reverse rotation gear box.What is the difference between a fast ratio and a slow ratio gear box?
The difference is the orientation of the teeth on the pitman shaft and power piston. Variable teeth will have a faster ratio than non-variable teeth.Can I adjust my original gear box if it has a lot of play?
Not recommended. The preload is adjusted at the time of assembly. If excessive play is present, it’s due to wear of internal components. If adjustment is attempted, it could lead to binding.Warranty Policy
