STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN
On-vehicle inspection
Steering wheel play
With the wheels in the straight-ahead position, gently turn the
steering wheel to the left and right to determine if play is with-
in specification.
Play: O-30mm (O-l. 18 in)
Note
l if play exceeds specification, either the steering
joints are worn or the backlash of the steering gear
is excessive.
Looseness of steering wheel and column
Move the steering wheel in directions @ , @ , and @ to check
for column bearing wear, steering shaft joint play, steering
wheel looseness. and column looseness.
Steering wheel effort
1. With the vehicle on a hard level surface, move the steering
wheel to put the wheels in the straight-ahead position.
2. Attach a pull scale to the outer of the steering wheel, and
then starting with the wheels in the straight-ahead position,
check the steering effort required to turn the steering wheel
to the left and to the right.
3. If the measured effort exceeds specification, check the fol-
lowing: rotation-starting torque of the pinion, rotation torque
of each ball joint, and seizure of each joint.
Steering wheel effort: 108 N (11 kg, 24.2 lb) or less
Note
l Measure after turning the steering wheel to the left
and right 5 times or more.

Pinion protector
1. Press the pinion protector onto the gear housing with the
SST as shown in the figure.
Pressure pad and adjustment cover
1. Install so that the pressure pad correctly contacts the rack.
2. Apply a coat of sealant to the threads of the adjusting cover.
Adjusting cover and locknut
1. Apply sealant to the adjusting cover.
2. After tightening the adjusting cover to a torque of 4.4-6.4
N-m (45-65 cm-kg, 39-56 ft-lb), loosen it about
5O -35” from that position. Add then tighten the locknut
securely.
Locknut tightening torque:
39-49 N-m (4.0-5.0 m-kg, 29-36 ft-lb)
2. Measure the pinion torque with the SST.
Pinion torque: Neutral position f 90’
0.9-l .3 N*m (9-13 cm-kg, 7.6-l 1.3 in-lb)
[Pull scale reading: 900-1,300 g, 31.6-45.9 oz]
Any other position
1.5 N-m or less (15 cm-kg, 13 in-lb or less)
[Pull scale reading:
1,500 g or less (52.95 02 or less)]
Tie rod
1. Attach new washers to the left and right tie rods, and then
screw them onto the rack.
2. Using a wrench, tighten the left and right tie rod to the speci-
fied torque.
Tightening torque:
108-128 N-m (1 l-13 m-kg, 80-94 ft-lb)
