How
to
order
the
correct
gear
part
number

When
a
customer
calls
for
a
steering
gear
they
typically
have
the
make,
model,
and

year
of
the
vehicle
but
do
not
have
the
specific
gear
part
number.

The
following
steps

will
help
you
move
from
the
make,
model,
and
year
information
to
the
actual
gear

part
number.

Once
you
have
the
make,
model,
and
year
of
the
truck
refer
to
the
ProSteering

application
guide
to
narrow
down
the
list
of
gears
that
were
used
on
this
application.

In
this
example
our
customer
most
likely
needs
a
56002R
or
55001R
PSG
steering

gear.

It
is
important
to
verify
a
few
more
pieces
of
information
to
determine
the

exact
PSG
steering
gear
part
number.

See
Appendix
I
of
this
manual
for
a
complete

example
of
the
process
used
to
identify
a
gear
part
number.

Gear
type

Each
OE
gear
manufacturer
positions
their
gear
part
number
in
different
locations
on

the
steering
gear
so
the
first
piece
of
information
we
need
is
the
gear
type.

On
the

gear
housing
of
each
gear
you
will
find
the
OE
manufacturers
logo
embossed
or

poured
in
to
the
casting.

Once
you
have
identified
the
gear
type
use
the
following
sections
to
determine
the

gear
part
number
for
the
various
product
families
produced
by
each
OE
gear

manufacturer.
