Mini Rack and Pinion

Your Mini's low profile grips the road with ease. Its small size allows you to zip in and out of traffic. The Mini rack and pinion steering system is what allows for its responsive feel. It's important to keep your steering maintained with regular service inspections. Any loose or worn parts need to be replaced immediately.

Your rack and pinion gear set protrudes from either end of the metal tube in which it's enclosed. The helical pinon rotates along a linear rack, converting rotational motion to linear motion. The simplicity of this system is what makes it so responsive. This system has four wear pints - the inner ball bearings and the outer tie rod ends. If any of these parts wear excessively, you experience problems with steering. A replacement steering rack for Mini and all the other steering components you need to stay driving safely are available at AutoAnything with our 1-Year, Lower Price Guarantee.
