Precision Rebuilding Backed by Real Testing
At Turbo Kings, every TAS65218 Sheppard Power Steering Gearbox is rebuilt with the same precision, process control, and in-house testing that define our reputation in the heavy-duty steering industry. Manufactured by Sheppard, the TAS65218 series is one of the most widely used gearboxes across Freightliner, Kenworth, and Peterbiltapplications from 2005 through 2020, known for its reliability and steering consistency in fleet and long-haul environments.
We don’t just replace worn components — we restore, validate, and certify every gearbox to perform at or above OEM specifications. Each unit is fully disassembled, media-cleaned, and inspected for wear, fatigue, and housing integrity. All seals, bearings, and internal components are replaced using premium Sheppard OEM-grade parts, ensuring smooth operation and lasting performance.
After reassembly, each gearbox undergoes a rigorous 5 GPM / 2000 PSI bench test, verifying hydraulic pressure balance, torque stability, and leak-free performance before it leaves our facility.
This isn’t outsourced or assumed — it’s physically tested right here at Turbo Kings.
