Spindle gasket for VOLKSWAGEN Combi Bay Window (08/1972-07/1979)

The steering lever spi gasket for a VW Combi is an essential part of the steering system, especially in models where the steering is equipped with lever mechanisms.

The main purpose of the spigot seal is to create a seal around the steering lever, which is the part that transmits steering wheel movements to the steering mechanisms (in particular the tie rods and rack).

It prevents dust, moisture and other contaminants from entering the steering mechanism, which could lead to premature wear of internal components (such as bearings or seals).

By reducing internal friction between the steering lever and other moving parts, it helps ensure smooth operation of the steering system and more precise, comfortable steering.

By protecting the internal components of the steering box from moisture and dirt, the steering lever spigot seal helps prevent rust and corrosion of metal parts, which can extend steering life.

If you notice steering fluid leaking around the steering lever or steering column, this may be due to a faulty spinnet seal.

A worn spinnaker seal can make steering more difficult or less responsive.

The presence of dirt or rust in this area may indicate that the spigot seal is no longer protecting the steering gearbox properly.

This steering lever spigot gasket is intended for VW Combi Bay Window from 08/1972 to 07/1979.
