when removing the gear box assembly.
INSPECTION

Check the rubber parts for cracks and breakage.
GEAR BOX TOTAL PINION TORQUE
Using the special tools, rotate the pinion gear at the rate
of one rotation in approximately 4 to 6 seconds to check
the total pinion torque.
Standard value: 0.9 – 1.7 Nm
[Change in torque: 0.4 Nm]
Caution
When holding the steering gear box assembly in a vice,
secure its mounting positions. If it is secured in any other
places, the gear housing may become deformed or
damaged.
NOTE
When measuring, remove the bellows from the rack housing.
Measure the pinion torque through the whole stroke of the
rack.
If the measured value is not within the standard range, first
adjust the rack support cover, and then check the total pinion
starting torque again.
