How is the repair of the rail
First of all steering rack is washed, after which it is completely disassembled, all the main parts (body, input shaft, torsion, secondary shaft, clamping mechanism, tubes, etc.) undergo a more thorough washing and troubleshooting. Worn parts if necessary steering rack are replaced with new ones or manufactured. Shafts undergo multi-stage grinding. All seals: seals, bushings, etc. without fail are changed to new ones. After assembly, the steering rack is tested on specialized equipment with obviously exceeded loads than during operation on a car, and only after that, if all indicators are normal, is put in place.
In the process of repairing the steering rack, it is important to pay attention to the following things:
- The steering cardan should work smoothly, without backlash, not bite or wedge. Otherwise, the input shaft oil seal fails in the steering rack. As a result, power steering fluid leaks through the upper stuffing box.
- The fluid in the hydraulic system must be clean, free of dirt and sand. Otherwise, during the operation of the rubbing parts of the mechanisms, the effect of the 'skin' appears, as a result of which the rail and the pump valve become clogged and produced, rapid wear aggregates. When repairing the rail, we change the fluid without fail.
