Compatibility

Recommended Repairs with This Type 2 Kit

• Includes serviceable internal seals and O-rings for internal rack repair
• Includes a spare cylinder end cover assembly in case of thread damage during disassembly
• Allows for cleaning and inspection of internal components during disassembly
• Helps reduce leaks, noise, and heavy steering when internal components are intact
• This Repair Kit Type 2 is intended for internal rack service only. Rack boots are serviced separately.

Why Are Rack Boots Not Included with This Type 2 Repair Kit?

In some cases, vehicles may be equipped with NISMO or other aftermarket tie rods (L/R), and rack boots may be replaced at the same time depending on the setup.

To avoid unnecessary duplication and additional cost, rack boots are intentionally not included in this Repair Kit Type 2.

This allows customers to:

• Reuse existing boots where applicable
• Install brand-new boots of their choice during the repair
• Avoid paying for parts they do not need

If you are looking for a repair kit that includes rack boots, please consider Repair Kit Type 4.

Important Notice

• Please be advised that the bearing for the steering pinion is not available as a separate part. Therefore, if replacement is necessary, the steering pinion assembly will need to be replaced as a complete unit.
• Some internal rack components are discontinued. If internal wear or damage is found, this repair kit cannot address those issues.
• In particular, the rear housing bearing seal is not available as an individual service part.
  If the bearing or seal is damaged, replacement of the rear housing assembly is required, however this assembly has been discontinued.
