Quality Used Steering Gears You Can Trust

The steering box (or steering gear) is the mechanical heart of your truck or classic car's steering system, translating your steering wheel movements into wheel direction. If you have excessive play, highway wandering, or a severely leaking unit, replacing it shouldn't cost a fortune. At Falcon Car Parts, we provide genuine used OEM steering boxes that restore tight, responsive handling.

Every used steering gear in our inventory is carefully removed from salvage vehicles. We thoroughly inspect the heavy cast housings, the input shaft splines that connect to your steering column, and the fluid ports to ensure you receive a durable, reliable part ready for installation.

  • Spline Verification: Checking the input and output (pitman arm) shaft splines for stripping.
  • Housing Integrity: Ensuring the heavy cast iron or aluminum casing is free of stress cracks.
  • Fluid Port Check: Inspecting the threaded ports for hydraulic lines to ensure they are clean and unstripped.

Our 6-Point Quality Check for Steering Boxes

Your steering system demands precision and strength. Every used steering box sold by Falcon passes the following standards:

  • 1. Input Shaft Spline Test: We inspect the splines where the steering column attaches to ensure they are crisp and unstripped.
  • 2. Pitman Arm Shaft Check: The lower sector/output shaft is checked for thread and spline integrity.
  • 3. Lock-to-Lock Sweep: We manually rotate the input shaft to confirm the internal gears do not bind or catch at any point.
  • 4. Housing Inspection: The heavy cast body is examined for structural cracks or impact damage.
  • 5. Fluid Port Threading: We verify the threaded holes for your high and low-pressure hydraulic lines are perfectly intact.
  • 6. Pre-Dismantle Leak Check: We inspect the unit for massive seal blowouts prior to removal from the donor vehicle.

Common Questions About Buying Used Steering Boxes

Used OEM steering boxes typically cost between $75 and $300. Prices vary significantly based on whether it is a standard passenger vehicle unit or a heavy-duty truck steering gear.

A steering box (recirculating ball system) is commonly found on trucks, SUVs, and older classic cars, whereas a rack and pinion is a linear steering system used on most modern cars and crossovers.

Whenever possible, we leave the original pitman arm attached to the output shaft of the steering box. However, it is primarily sold as the box assembly itself, so please confirm during your quote.

Yes, we stock standard hydraulic power steering boxes as well as manual steering boxes for older and specific fleet vehicles that do not use power assist.

Absolutely. When installing a replacement power steering box, you must flush the lines and use fresh, manufacturer-approved power steering fluid to prevent old debris from destroying the replacement box seals.

Common signs of a failing steering box include excessive 'play' or looseness in the steering wheel, the vehicle wandering on the highway, binding or hard spots when turning, or massive power steering fluid leaks from the seals.

Yes. We inspect the high and low-pressure fluid port threads on the steering box housing to ensure your original lines will thread in securely without cross-threading or leaking.

OEM steering boxes feature superior cast housings and precision internal gearing. Cheap aftermarket remanufactured boxes are notorious for having sloppy tolerances out of the box or blowing seals prematurely.

Yes, our technicians manually rotate the input shaft lock-to-lock before inventorying the part to ensure the internal worm gear and bearings operate smoothly without grinding or dead spots.

Steering boxes are incredibly dense and heavy. We use reinforced, multi-wall cardboard boxes and extensive block padding to protect the input and output splines from being damaged during transit.
