What is a Rack and Pinion for a 2000 Sable Ford and what repairs are involved?
torque sensor is not replaceable you need to replace the whole rack
All car have a rack and pinion steering
In a rack and pinion system, a bull gear is typically the last reduction gear in the geartrain. It transmits torque to an output pinion which is in contact with a rack.
My 1995 Ford Explorer owners manual shows 100 pounds - try to load towards the rear of the rack
I AM TRYING TO REPLACE A RACK AND PINION IN A 1997 FORD EXPLORER COULD YOU TELL ME OR GIVE ME A PICTURE ON HOW THE OLD ONE COMES OUT>
Yes
Yes
For a 19-inch rack, "U" refers to 1 rack unit, which is about 1.75 inches, with an actual equipment height of about 1.719 inches due to the front panel height. Rack mounted equipment will often have specs with this unit, like 2U, 3U, 6U, etc specifying the height.
Depends on the year, but generally not.
Put it in the trash.
You don't, because an XF Falcon doesn't have rack and pinion steering. It has a steering box.
