Author: Date:
1996 LAND CRUISER (RM451U)
STEERING WHEEL
INSPECTION
1. CHECK STEERING WHEEL FREEPLAY
(a) With the vehicle stopped and tires pointed straight ahead,
rock the steering wheel gently back and forth with light fin-
ger pressure.
(b) Freeplay should not exceed the maximum. Maximum freeplay: 40 mm (1.58 in.)
If the freeplay exceeds the maximum, adjust it in the following
procedure.
2. ADJUST STEERING GEAR
(a) Point the front wheels straight ahead.
(b) Loosen the adjusting screw lock nut.
(c) Turn the cross shaft adjusting screw clockwise to de- crease steering wheel freeplay and counterclockwise to
increase it.
HINT:
Turn the adjusting screw in small increments and check the
freeplay between each adjustment.
(d) Turn the steering wheel half way around in both direc- tions.
(e) Check that the freeplay is correct and steering is smooth and without rough spots.
(f) Torque the adjusting screw lock nut (See page SR−41).
3. CHECK STEERING EFFORT
(a) Center the steering wheel.
(b) Remove the steering wheel pad (See page SR−11).
(c) Start the engine and run it at idle.
(d) Measure the steering effort in both directions.

DISASSEMBLY
NOTICE:
When using a vise, do not overtighten it.
1. SECURE PS GEAR ASSEMBLY IN VISE
Secure the gear assembly on SST and clamp SST in a vise. SST 09630−00014 (09631 −00142)
2. REMOVE ADJUSTING SCREW LOCK NUT AND SEAL
WASHER
3. REMOVE SIDE COVER
(a) Remove the 4 bolts.
(b) Turn the cross shaft adjusting screw clockwise until the cover comes off.
(c) Remove the O−ring from the cover.
4. REMOVE CROSS SHAFT
Using a plastic hammer, tap on the cross shaft end and pull out
the shaft.
5. REMOVE POWER PISTON PLUNGER GUIDE NUT, COMPRESSION SPRING, POWER PISTON PLUNGER
AND POWER PISTON PLUNGER GUIDE
(a) Using a hexagon wrench (10 mm), remove the plunger
guide nut.
(b) Remove the O−ring from the plunger guide nut.
6. REMOVE WORM GEAR VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY
(a) Remove the 4 bolts.

Minimum spring installed load:
1.4 kW type: 11.8 N (1.20 kgf, 2.7 lbf)
2.0 kW type: 12.7 N (1.29 kgf, 2.9 lbf)
If the installed load is less than minimum replace the brush
springs.
11. INSPECT BRUSH HOLDER INSULATION
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity between
the positive (+) and negative ( −) brush holders.
If there is continuity, repair or replace the brush holder.
12. INSPECT GEAR TEETH
Check the gear teeth on the pinion gear, idler gear and clutch
assembly for wear or damage.
If damaged, replace the gear or clutch assembly.
If damaged, also check the drive plate ring gear for wear or
damage.
13. INSPECT CLUTCH PINION GEAR
Hold the starter clutch and rotate the pinion gear clockwise, and
check that it turns freely. Try to rotate the pinion gear counter-
clockwise and check that it locks.
If necessary, replace the clutch assembly.
14. INSPECT REAR BEARING
Turn each bearing by hand while applying inward force.
If resistance is felt or the bearing sticks, replace the bearing.
15. INSPECT FRONT BEARING
Turn each bearing by hand while applying inward force.
If resistance is felt or the bearing sticks, replace the bearing.
