Note these items during disassembly:
. Inspect the ball bearing by rotating the outer race
slowly. lf there is any excessive play, replace the
pinion shaft and sleeve as an assembly.
. The pinion shaft and sleeve are a precise fit; do
not intermix old and new Dinion shafts and

Reassembly (cont'd)
Apply power steering fluid to the surface of the spe-
cial tool. Set the new seal rings over the special tool
from the smaller diameter end of the tool. and
expand the seal rings. Install two rings at a time
Jrom each end ofthe sleeve.
Note these items when installing the seal ring:
. Do not over-expand the seal ring. Install the resin
seal rings with care so as not to damage them.
After installation, be sure to contract the seal
rings using the specialtool {sizing tool).
. There are two types of sleeve seal rings: black
and brown. Do not mix the different types of
sleeve seal rings as they are not compatible.
Align the special tool with each groove in the sleeve,
and slide a sleeve seal ring into each groove. After
installation, compress the seal rings with your fin-
gers temporarily.

Note these items during reassembly:
. Be caretul not to damage the valve seal ring
when inserting the sleeve.
. Install the circlip with its radiused side facing out.
Apply power steering fluid to the seal ring lip of the
valve oil seal. then install the seal in the valve hous-
