GMC R1500 Power Steering Control Valve

The GMC R1500 Power Steering Control Valve effectively supplies the proper hydraulic pressure in a response-driven fashion. This allows for smooth muscle-saving steering assist without sacrificing the legendary truck feel. Within traditional rigging and subsequently built-in gearbox systems, the Power Steering Control Valve detects motion of the pitman arm or rack and then redirects pressurized fluid to the assist piston. This enables effortless fingertip control of a loaded bed. It has a well-deserved reputation for durability thanks to rugged housing, precision metering slots, and wear resistant seals that withstand thousands of parking maneuvers and long highway hauls. Whether your vehicle is a base GMC R1500, a High Sierra GMC R1500, or the upscale Sierra Classic GMC R1500, the same Power Steering Control Valve will fit so you can save time searching and give that same steering feel. The Power Steering Control Valve balances fluid at center and boosts only when the wheels turn. It helps in reducing the pump load and increases steering efficiency. This frees up rpm for towing or hill climbs. With the Power Steering Control Valve ensuring a predictable response from the wheels, kickback on rough terrain is reduced while the heavy chassis remains stable in emergency swerves. Thus, added safety is provided to drivers. Models of older external type incorporate two hoses connecting the Power Steering Control Valve with the slave cylinder, whereas newer integrated forms remove these linkages for lesser chances of leaks. In spite of every design keeping identical metering, the manuals remain straightforward. A restoration-minded owner can attach a new Power Steering Control Valve to a vintage GMC R1500 from the 1980s without any alteration to period correct components. Furthermore, thanks to factory specification matching, steering becomes lighter and easier. For contemporary applications, the same Power Steering Control Valve is applied with later GMC R1500 applications that have the valve within the gearbox. This shows how a clever component was adapted to suit chassis changes but never compromised the feel enthusiasts love.

Each OEM GMC R1500 Power Steering Control Valve we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
