Chevrolet Metro Rack and Pinion Boot

The Rack and Pinion Boot in Chevrolet Metro has to do with an individual rubber component which acts as a cover to the steering rack from Road grime and others which may interfere with the functioning of the rack and pinion. Sealing of both ends of the rack also has an important function in that it precludes any possibility of the boot itself causing harm to the rack and therefore compromising the stiffness of the steering mechanism. The Rack and Pinion Boot should therefore be checked frequently and if there is need then changed to avoid any failure or complications with the steering equipment.

Each OEM Chevrolet Metro Rack and Pinion Boot we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
