New Upgrade! 30% Faster Ratio Change
We’re excited to be offering rebuild upgrade options for C5 Corvettes that swap internal gearing to give you faster steering. The factory in-car steering ratio is roughly 16:1, which has been a standard ratio for a long, long time. With Turn One’s exclusive quick ratio option, your rack will be converted to an 11:1, making it approximately 30% faster. This means less hand-over-hand steering in tight corners, quicker corrections, and more precise inputs! Simply select the upgrade option when you check out above, and when you send your rack for rebuild, we will modify and upgrade your core with the new internals.
C5 Corvettes are one of our specialty vehicles at Turn One! We process more C5 racks than any other model. Whether your rack is gushing fluid or you just want a “tune-up” for the upcoming race season, our rebuilding service will bring your rack back to its peak potential. Read more about our services below. If you have questions about our rebuilding services or process, please contact us.
C5 Corvette Rack & Pinions (1997-2004)
We are able to service all years of the C5 generation. As part of the rebuild, we instthem yourself in advancend also take special care to seal the magnasteer wire area*, which is an area commonly prone to leaks. If you would like us to install new inner tie rods on the rack, we recommend sourcing them yourself in advance. Include them with your rack, and we will install the new inner tie rods during reassembly so your rack is drop-in ready. As with any rack, individual cores can have internal issues with hard parts, such as damage, wear, or pitting from oxidation. Fixing these types of issues is critical to ensure the rack is rebuilt to OEM specifications, and fixes can influence the total cost of the rebuild. If we find any issues that will prevent us from getting your rack core to OEM specs, you will be notified, and the issue will be addressed accordingly. Thankfully, we have a plentiful stock of good used C5 rack parts, so issues typically do not impact turnaround times.
*We cannot guarantee a perfect seal from the electromagnet “magnasteer” wire area. However, we’ve had great success with our sealing process to stop leaks and have a better-than-OEM track record of how this seal performs.
Expedite Service:
Our expedited service bumps your rebuild to the top of the priority list. We DO NOT guarantee a specific turnaround time for this service, as each individual rack can require a different amount of service. This does speed up the turnaround time compared to your rack’s standard turnaround.
Please refer to the Rebuild Checkout Process before placing your order
Please Follow the Checkout Process Below:
1) Complete our online checkout, where you pay an initial deposit for your rack rebuild. Please enter the year and model of your rack during checkout.
2) You will receive a 4-digit order # after you complete the checkout (xxxx). Please either write this order # on the shipment package, OR include a printed paper with your shipment that shows the order #.
3) Ship us your rack & pinion however you would like. You can use your choice of shipping provider and packaging. Please make sure that your hose ports are capped, and no fluid will escape the rack during shipping. If possible, we also recommend removing the inner tie rods of the rack to help make it shorter and less expensive to ship. However, this is not necessary if you don't feel comfortable doing so. We do not need the inner tie rods or boots to complete the rebuild, but if you include the originals, we will reinstall them for no additional charge.
4) If you know that you would like or need to replace the inner tie rods or boots, we recommend you purchase these ahead of time and include them with your rack shipment. The inner tie rods or boots should be replaced if they are ripped or showing other damage. We will install new boots & tie rods for no additional cost and send back the assembled rack. Our rebuilding services DO NOT include new tie rods or boots.
5) Please leave the high-pressure hard lines attached to the rack (they connect the valve housing to the rack tube). We need these with the rack to properly dyno test your rack after rebuilding.
6) Ship it!
