Lares Steering Gear
Lares Steering Gear: Precision-Remanufactured for Confident Control
When the steering gear in your car or truck begins to wear — showing symptoms like wandering, looseness, or stiff response — the quality of the replacement unit makes all the difference. Lares Corporation has built a decades-long reputation as one of the most respected names in steering restoration, and their steering gear lineup is the centerpiece of that legacy.
Lares Corporation is one of the largest manufacturers of new and remanufactured power steering gears, manual steering gears, power steering pumps, and steering components in the United States. That depth of specialization shows in every unit they produce — this is a company that does one thing, and does it exceptionally well.
What Sets Lares Steering Gears Apart
Lares offers both remanufactured and new steering gears, giving customers options depending on their vehicle, budget, and application. Their inventory includes power steering gears, manual steering gears, power steering control valves, power steering cylinders, rag joint steering couplers and kits. Whether you're restoring a classic or repairing a modern daily driver, there's a Lares unit designed to fit.
The remanufacturing process Lares employs is thorough and systematic. Power steering gears are thoroughly cleaned and exterior surfaces reconditioned for a like-new appearance; each component is carefully inspected and replaced if not to OE tolerances; and all seals and O-rings are replaced with OE-equivalent parts. This attention to detail ensures a unit that performs as reliably as original equipment.
In addition, all units are hydraulically tested to guarantee proper function even in the most demanding conditions. That final hydraulic verification step is a hallmark of Lares quality control — you're not just getting a cleaned-up old part, but a fully validated steering gear ready for real-world use.
Engineering Depth and Vehicle Coverage
Lares employs advanced engineering using the latest production equipment to produce their steering products and has established manufacturing partners worldwide — and all parts go through a vigorous testing process before they leave the facility.
If they don't have your part in stock, they can remanufacture your core — and they work on every steering system ever made, from the oldest car to the newest truck. Their new steering gear lineup covers a wide range of makes, including AMC, Buick, Chevrolet, GMC, International, Jeep, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Cadillac, Dodge, and Isuzu, among others. This breadth of coverage makes Lares a go-to source for both enthusiasts working on vintage platforms and technicians servicing late-model fleets.
Backed by a Lifetime Warranty
Lares backs their claim to quality with a limited lifetime warranty and also has product specialists ready to answer all your technical questions. Lares products are backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty (commercial use — one year). For DIYers and professional shops alike, that warranty coverage provides meaningful peace of mind when replacing a safety-critical component like a steering gear.
