JADJUSTMENT OF PINION TOTAL TURNING
TORQUE
(1) With special tool, tighten rack support cover to 15 Nm
{1.5 kgf
m}.
(2) Return rack support cover approx. 30
.
(3) Using the special tools, rotate the pinion shaft at the
rate of one rotation in approximately 4 to 6 seconds to
check that the turning torque and the torque fluctuation
confirm to the standard values.
Standard value:
Pinion total turning torque
0.9 – 1.7 Nm {9 – 17 kgf
cm}
Torque fluctuation 0.4 Nm {4 kgf
cm} or less
(4) If either the turning torque or the torque fluctuation
deviates from the standard value, turn back the rack
support cover within the range of 0 to 30
to adjust it
for the standard value.
Caution
1. When adjusting, set the standard value at its
highest value.
2. Assure no ratcheting or catching when operating
rack towards the axial direction.
3. Be sure to measure the turning torque through
the whole stroke of the rack.
NOTE
If the standard value cannot be obtained by turning back
the rack support cover within the specified angle range,
check rack support cover components and replace as
required.
NTIE ROD END / LOCK NUT INSTALLATION
Turn down the tie rod until the dimension shown in the
illustration is reached; then, temporarily tighten the lock nut.
NOTE
The lock nut is to be tightened to the specified torque after
toe-in has been adjusted with the steering gear & linkage
mounted in the vehicle.
