Crémaillère de direction assistée

Format: .STL (High-Density Polygon Mesh)

Category: Steering & Front Suspension 

📄 Product Overview

This digital download contains a high-precision 3D surface scan (.STL mesh) of the OEM-style hydraulic power-assisted steering rack (PAS) typically fitted to performance variants of the French late 90s/early 2000s compact hatchback platform (such as the 106 GTI and Saxo VTS).

This 3D scan is an indispensable tool for chassis builders, race engineers, and fabricators looking to model custom steering geometry, design electric power steering (EPAS) conversions, fabricate custom subframe mounts, or analyze bump-steer and tie-rod angles in CAD.

🔍 Technical Specifications

💡 Ideal Applications

• EPAS & Quick-Rack Conversions: 
  Model custom electric power steering motor mounts or aftermarket quick-rack kit interfaces in CAD.
  
  

• Custom Subframe & Tubular Front Ends: 
  Design rigid mounting brackets or tubular front subframes around the original steering rack hardpoints.

• 
  

• Kinematics & Suspension Design: 
  Reference the exact tie-rod pivot centers in 3D CAD to evaluate steering ackermann, tie-rod length, and bump-steer characteristics.
  
  

• 3D Printing & Prototyping: 

• Print 1:1 scale mounting sections or pinion covers to verify clearance against aftermarket exhaust manifolds or engine swaps.

⚠️ Disclaimer & Fitment Notice

Spatial Reference Only: This 3D scan represents a physical steering rack captured in its as-manufactured state. Due to manufacturing casting tolerances, production revisions, and mechanical wear on used components, all critical mounting bolt centerlines, pinion shaft splines, and hydraulic port threads must be physically measured and verified by the fabricator prior to final manufacturing or CNC machining.

Vehicle steering systems are safety-critical components. Kinematic, structural, and safety evaluations remain the sole responsibility of the builder/engineer. The seller assumes no liability for steering components or brackets fabricated using this reference data.

Disclaimer: All brand names, trade names, or vehicle model designations (such as Peugeot, Citroën, 106, GTI, Saxo, VTS) are used purely for compatible vehicle and chassis identification purposes. This product is an independent aftermarket digital reference file and is not manufactured, endorsed, or affiliated with Stellantis N.V. or its subsidiaries.
