How To Remanufacture A Rack-and-Pinion Gear — An ACDelco Exclusive

ACDelco Rack-and-Pinion Gear

The ACDelco remanufacturing process is an aspiration of many manufacturers, however few are willing to make the commitment. We, of course, wouldn't have it any other way!

For Remanufactured Rack-And-Pinion Gears, we maintain the cleanest possible working environment, as contamination is the leading cause of premature failure. Then, we perform the following eight rigorous steps:

  1. Cleaning — All gears are externally degreased.
  2. Disassembly and Inspection — All seals are discarded, metal is inspected and then polished to specifications. Pinion and valve assemblies are sorted to ensure a proper match for final assembly, and any unidentified or out-of-range valves are scrapped.
  3. Parts Preparation — All individual parts are degreased and cleaned ... again.
  4. Assembly — All seals, O-rings, bushings, valve rings, boots and clamps are replaced with new, original-equipment quality parts.
  5. Testing — All gears undergo a series of tests to ensure proper functioning.
  6. Test Result Documentation — Recording test results ensures that all ACDelco Remanufactured Rack-And-Pinion Gears meet or exceed customer expectations.
  7. Final Preparation — After passing all tests and inspection, each unit is prepared for final packaging.
