inspect mo muna yung rack and pinion mo before thinking of buying a surplus.

yung internals naman ng valve body bihira masira. yung rack (shaft) ang dapat in good condition meaning walang deep scratches or scores. and keep in mind na meron part ng shaft na meron talagang scratch marks due to contact with the rack guide. ok lang ito basta makinis pa din yung part ng shaft na in contact with the oil seal.

yung 15-20K whole power steering assemble na yun siguro na surplus.

kung steering rack lang, less syempre.

makikisingit na rin.. hindi ko alam kung san ung sira eh. basta may tagas kasi ung power steering sa may fittings ata un. tapos ung manibela kasi parang iba, mabigat tapos magaan habang iniikot mo. parang may oblong o liko kung san man. sabi kasi nung pinagtanungan ko sa shell dahil lang daw sa leak un. sabi naman ng isang shop dito baka daw may liko nga. ung repaik kit daw 3,500 tapos ung labor eh 3000. tama lang ba ung price na un incase tama nga siya sa hinala niya?

anyways papatignan ko muna ung sa fittings baka mas mura un. hehehe

salamat.

kotse nga pala is ek hatch.

if minsan mabigat and minsan ok yung feel ng power steering it may be a pump or pressure hose problem

Im having the same problem on a corolla 93. Zee recommends hard chroming to even out the rough but not so deep scratches on the shaft.

What do you think about hard chroming? Or should I save up for the surplus?

replace the whole one nalang imo. it'll save you time and money in the long run.

Hi Speedy,
I ended up having it resurfaced and then had the repair kit installed. I hope this holds up.

Btw, what brand of power steering anti leak fluid would you recommend? Cyclos any good?
