This hydraulic power steering rack is listed for 2006–2016 Kia Bongo III 2WD applications, with 57700-4E040 as the main OE reference. The compact number 577004E000 is also published, so number format and physical configuration should be checked separately.
| Product | Kia Bongo III 2006–2016 Hydraulic Power Steering Rack |
|---|---|
| Steering category | Hydraulic Power Steering Rack |
| OE references | 57700-4E040 and 577004E000 |
| KITLAMT catalogue code | KL-YX8614 |
| Verified catalogue application | Kia Bongo III 2WD, 2006–2016, LHD |
| Drivetrain | The reviewed application is 2WD. A 4WD Bongo must not be selected from the model name alone. |
|---|---|
| Year boundary | Check the production date, particularly around a model change or where registration year differs. |
| OE formatting | 577004E000 is published without separators; still compare it character by character with the label. |
| Steering position | The catalogue application is LHD. RHD requires the corresponding configuration. |
| Hardware comparison | Review housing length, bracket locations, port angles, input shaft and tie-rod connections. |
Do not assume Bongo III 2WD and 4WD steering assemblies are shared because their overall appearance is similar. State the drivetrain when requesting a quote.
| Vehicle pulls | Check tyre pressure, brake drag, suspension and alignment first; pulling is not proof of a rack fault. |
|---|---|
| Knock on the road | With the vehicle safely raised, inspect tie-rod joints, mounting bushes, brackets and the column coupling. |
| Variable assistance | Look for foaming fluid or belt slip and assess pump delivery and the return line. |
| Damp seal area | Clean and recheck to distinguish old residue, a leaking pipe and an internal rack leak. |
| Vehicle record | Confirm year, 2WD/4WD, LHD/RHD and original OE before disassembly. |
|---|---|
| Hydraulic lines | Inspect pressure and return unions; address damaged or contaminated lines according to repair data. |
| Return to service | Fill with the specified fluid, bleed the circuit, check full travel and finish with alignment. |
| Quote information | OE photo, last eight VIN characters or vehicle data, year, drivetrain, quantity and destination. |
| Does 57700-4E040 fit a Bongo III 4WD? | The verified catalogue entry is 2WD. A 4WD unit needs its own OE and layout check. |
|---|---|
| Why is 577004E000 written without hyphens? | Some databases omit separators; that writing convention does not remove the need to confirm the version. |
| Is every Bongo registered in 2006 covered? | No. Registration and production dates can differ, and OE plus drivetrain remain important. |
| What if the vehicle still pulls after installation? | Inspect tyres, suspension, brakes and alignment instead of assuming the replacement rack is the sole cause. |
