*** We strongly recommend replacing the power steering pump at the same time as the steering rack. Swarf (metal particles) in the power steering system can circulate and cause damage to both components.
When ordered together, the steering rack and pump can be purchased as a discounted bundle, providing better long-term reliability and value.
If you choose to replace only the steering rack and, upon return of your exchange unit, we discover that the rack bar is scored or contaminated with swarf, this indicates that debris is present in the system. In such cases, we will advise replacing the pump as well — however, it will then be charged at the full retail price plus postage.
Please note: if we have advised that there is swarf in the system and you choose not to replace both components, any future warranty claims related to this issue will not be valid.

Steering rack mounting hardware plays a critical role in maintaining steering precision and chassis stability. Correct fastening ensures the steering rack remains securely mounted under load, helping maintain accurate steering response and reducing unwanted movement or vibration. Over time, original hardware can corrode, stretch, or become damaged during servicing, making replacement essential during steering or suspension repairs.
Produced as an OE Match replacement, this pan head screw is designed to replicate the original Porsche hardware specification for dependable fit and performance. It is ideal for maintenance work, steering rack replacement, restoration projects, or replacing worn or missing original fasteners.
Why power steering rack hardware replacement matters
Power steering rack mounting screws are subjected to constant vibration, steering loads, and suspension movement. Over time, hardware can corrode, stretch, or lose clamping strength, which may lead to unwanted steering movement, vibration, or reduced steering precision. Replacing worn or damaged fasteners helps maintain secure steering rack mounting and reliable handling performance.
When power steering rack screws should be replaced
• During steering rack replacement or removal
• If original hardware is corroded or damaged
• When threads show signs of wear or stretching
• If steering vibration or movement is detected
• During suspension or front subframe servicing
• As part of restoration or preventative maintenance work

Replacement Pipes (Steel) For LHD Steering Rack (Pair)
For Left Hand Drive Cars ONLY!
Other than buying a completely new steering rack or having your existing steering rack refurbished, which are both very expensive options, we now offer replacement steering rack pipes which are normally not available separately, the two replacement pipes fit to the steering rack, these pipes normally deteriorate. The steering rack of a power-assisted car needs a hydraulic circuit: a pressure line (high pressure) from the power steering pump (or pump + reservoir assembly) to the steering rack, and a return line (low pressure) from the rack back to the reservoir (or pump return side).
Fits:
- Porsche Boxster 986 2.5L 1997-99
- Porsche Boxster 986 2.7L 1999-02

OEMatch Steering Racks — Fit, Function, Confidence
OEMatch supplies steering racks for Porsche models, chosen for servicing, restoration and upgrades. The steering rack converts steering-wheel rotation into lateral wheel movement; a correctly functioning rack supports accurate tracking, steering feel and vehicle stability in everyday driving and more demanding use.
Available Types
- Manual steering racks
- Hydraulic power-assisted racks
- Electric power-assisted racks
Understanding OEMatch Steering Racks
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original steering racks. OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the steering racks and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM steering racks engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models. The steering rack assembly houses the rack and pinion, seals and mounting interfaces; it transmits driver input from the steering wheel into controlled wheel movement and works with the remainder of the steering system to help maintain tracking and feedback.
Benefits Include
- Restores precise steering response and reduces play
- Eliminates fluid leaks where present and restores predictable effort
- Supports accurate tracking and consistent tyre wear by maintaining correct geometry
Why Steering Racks Wear and Fail
- Seal deterioration leading to fluid loss and internal wear
- Corrosion or pitting on internal rack surfaces
- Contaminated fluid or debris causing accelerated wear
The Importance of Replacing with OEMatch Steering Racks
Maintaining a serviceable steering rack is important for control and safety on any Porsche. Worn or leaking racks can introduce play, uneven steering effort or unpredictable handling. Replacing a defective rack restores intended steering behaviour and reduces the risk of secondary damage to associated steering and suspension components; check mounting points, seals and fasteners during replacement.
Advantages
- Available across manual, hydraulic and electric formats to suit model requirements
- Direct-fit alternatives engineered to match original dimensions and tolerances
- Options suitable for routine servicing, refurbishment or performance restoration
