STEERING RHD
GENERAL SERVICE PROCEDURE INFORMATION
Right hand drive service procedures and torque
specifications involving steering; linkage, gear and
column are the same as left hand drive vehicles ex-
cept where shown. Refer to appropriate service pro-
cedures regarding each component in the system.
The steering linkage consists of a pitman arm, drag
link, and tie rod. Adjustment sleeves are used on the
tie rod and drag link for toe and steering wheel
alignment (Fig. 1).
RECIRCULATING-BALL POWER STEERING GEARS
The steering gears can be adjusted and internally
serviced. The components CANNOT be interchanged
with those of a left hand drive vehicle.
The steering gear has a 17.5:1 ratio.
POWER STEERING PUMP
PRESSURE AND RETURN LINE
REPLACEMENT
Cap hose open ends and pump/steering gear fit-
tings to prevent entry of foreign material.
WARNING: POWER STEERING FLUID (AND PUMP
COMPONENTS) AND THE EXHAUST SYSTEM CAN
BE EXTREMELY HOT IF THE ENGINE HAS BEEN
RECENTLY OPERATING. DO NOT START THE EN-
GINE WITH ANY LOOSE OR DISCONNECTED
HOSES. DO NOT ALLOW THE LINES TO TOUCH A
HOT EXHAUST MANIFOLD.REMOVAL
(1) Place a drain pan under the pump and gear.
(2) Disconnect the pressure and return line from
the steering gear (Fig. 2, 3).
(3) Disconnect the pressure and return line from
the pump (Fig. 4). Drain the fluid from pump and
reservoir.

(4) Remove pressure and return line bracket at
belt tensioner (Fig. 5).
INSTALLATION
(1) Wipe hose ends, pump and gear unions clean.(2) Install pressure and return line on the pump
and gear (Fig. 2, 3, 4).
(3) Align the pressure and return line bracket to
the tensioner bracket. Install the screw. Tighten the
screw to 28 Nzm (21 ft. lbs.) torque.

(4) Tighten fittings at pump and gear to 28 Nzm
(21 ft. lbs.) torque.
(5) After installation, add power steering fluid, in-
spect and test for fluid leaks.
PUMP REPLACEMENT
REMOVAL
(1) Remove and cap pressure and return lines from
pump. Refer to Pressure and Return Line Replace-
ment in this section.(2) Remove belt tension, turn tensioner clock-wise
and slip belt off pulley (Fig. 6).
(3) Remove the screws retaining front bracket and
pump to the rear bracket (Fig. 7, 8).
(4) Remove screws that attach the front bracket to
the rear bracket (Fig. 9).
(5) Remove pump from bracket.
To remove the rear bracket from engine, the air
conditioning compressor and bracket must be re-
moved first. Refer to Group 24, Heating and Air Con-
ditioning for removal procedures.
(6) Remove fan from pulley and hub on rear
bracket.
(7) Remove 4 screws attaching the rear bracket to
block (Fig. 10, 11).
(8) Remove bracket from engine.

INSTALLATION
(1) Install the rear bracket to engine. Install
screws finger tight.
(2) Tighten front screws to 48 Nzm (35 ft. lbs.)
torque. Tighten side screw to 48 Nzm (35 ft. lbs.)
torque. It is important to torque the front screws
FIRST and the side screw LAST. This will prevent
the bracket from twisting or distorting.
(3) Install fan to pulley and hub. Tighten the nuts
to 27 Nzm (20 ft. lbs.) torque.
(4) Install air conditioning bracket and compressor
to engine. Refer to Group 24, Heating and Air Condi-
tioning for installation procedures.(5) Loose assemble screws through front bracket,
pump and into rear bracket.
(6) Install screws that attach the front bracket to
the rear bracket (Fig. 8). Tighten the screws to 27
Nzm (20 ft. lbs.) torque (Fig. 7).
(7) Install belt, turn tensioner clockwise and slip
belt onto pulley (Fig. 6).
(8) Install pressure and return lines to pump. Re-
fer to Pressure and Return Line Replacement in this
section.
(9) After installation, add power steering fluid, in-
spect and test for fluid leaks. Refer to Power Steering
PumpÐInitial Operation.

TRANSMISSION INSTALLATION
(1) Install clutch housing on transmission. Tighten
housing bolts to 37 Nzm (27 ft. lbs.) torque.
(2) Lubricate contact surfaces of release fork pivot
ball stud and release fork with high temp grease.
Then install release bearing, fork and retainer clip.
(3) Mount transmission on transmission jack.
(4) Lightly lubricate pilot bearing and transmis-
sion input shaft splines with Mopar high temp
grease.
(5) Align transmission input shaft, release bearing,
and clutch disc splines. Then slide transmission into
place.
(6) Install and tighten clutch housing-to-engine
bolts to 38 Nzm (28 ft. lbs.) torque.Be sure the
