Stage 3 Steering
Flat out the most powerful and strongest rack available for your Ford Ranger Raptor. If you are done with band aids and tired of messing around this is the rack you want. This features the more powerful HOSS 3.0 motor in our bombproof housing. We recommend this for 37″+ tires or for anyone who feels their steering doesn’t have enough power offroad.
*This rack does not come with replacement tie rods which we know are the weak link. We recommend Apex Chassis Bronco Tie Rods. These can be purchased though us or through Apex Chassis

This kit comes with the internals from a Ford Performance HOSS 3.0 in our billet aluminum housing ready to swap into your bronco. It is fully programmed and will be a plug and play unit. Larger tie rods are recommended. We recommend and sell Apex Chassis Bronco Tie Rods as an upgrade.
This is the steering solution for those that don’t want to compromise. If you are going to run a large tire you want more power. If you are going to wheel your vehicle you want to know that your rack isn’t going to leave you stranded on the side of the road. This unit upgrades you to the Ford Performance HOSS 3.0 higher torque setup, packaged in a bombproof housing for the ultimate plug and play package.
This is much more than a simple housing. Our billet aluminum steering rack is a completely redesigned solution for those who want the security of knowing that this housing will not break. We have redesigned how the rack bar is stabilized in the housing, eliminating the common failure points on both sides of the rack. The factory rack bar is stabilized by 1.5 points of contact. Our billet housings stabilizes the rack in 4 points of contact and adds a massive amount of material to high stress housing areas making it the strongest steering rack available.
While this is a massive improvement over the factory rack, we still maintain full OEM compatibility. The OE rack is fully integrated with factory ABS electronics and this critical component is fully maintained with the 74Weld Billet Ranger Steering Rack. We use the internals and motor from a Ford Performance HOSS 3.0 rack to ensure proper electronic integration and compatibility with all OE systems. Plan on driving your Ranger mostly on the street? No problem, this is NOT an off road only product. It will function perfectly for road driving with zero adverse effects. The fitment and feel is perfect for road use, but strong enough to take heavy off road abuse.
6061 Aluminum
Our 6061 Billet housing is a massive strength upgrade vs the factory cast aluminum housing.
CNC Machined Housing Design
We purposely left a whole lot more material in critical areas of our rack making it much stronger. Modeled in CAD with FEA analysis, we are able to see where weak points are from impacts, frame twist, shock loads, and typical rock crawling scenarios. We then take this data and use it to guide us on design, giving you the strongest rack available. By adding material in high stress zones the rack housing is substantially stronger. How much stronger? We are confident you can’t ever break our housings and we will back that with a lifetime warranty.
Rack Bar Stabilization
We completely redesigned how the rack bar is stabilized by the housings. By machining the critical pieces on state of the art 5 axis CNC machines we are able to dramatically increase surface area contact around the rack and pinion by over 580% compared to stock. This huge increase leads to a much more robust rack because the rack bar is properly supported in every direction.
