Our guide covers 11 model years for the Chevy Silverado 1500 (2015–2025) but only 8 for the Volvo XC40 (2018–2025), so the Chevy Silverado 1500 data reflects a broader range of generations.
The Chevy Silverado 1500 steering rack is interchangeable across 13 model years versus just 8 for the Volvo XC40 — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.

Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used steering rack
- Check for power steering fluid leaks at the input shaft seal and at both inner tie rod boots.
- Confirm whether it's hydraulic or electric power steering — they're completely different units.
- Look for a bent housing or damaged mounting ears from collision damage.
- Ask whether inner tie rods are included. Replacing them separately adds labor and cost.
