STEERING WHEEL FREE PLAY CHECKM1372001000311
1. With the engine running (hydraulic operation), set
the front wheels straight ahead.
2. Measure the play on the steering wheel
circumference before the wheels start to move
when slightly moving the steering wheel in both
directions.
Limit: 30 mm
3. When the play exceeds the limit, check for the
play on the steering shaft and steering linkage
connection. Correct or replace.
4. If the free play still exceeds the limit value, set the
steering wheel straight ahead with the engine
stopped. Load 5 N towards the steering wheel
circumference and check the play.
Standard value (steering wheel play with the
engine stopped): 10 mm or less
5. If the play exceeds the standard value, remove
the steering gear (Refer to P.37-24) and check
the total pinion torque (Refer to P.37-27).
STEERING ANGLE CHECKM1372001100374
1. Place the front wheel on a turning radius gauge
and measure the steering angle.
Standard value:
2. If the steering angle is not within the standard
value, adjust the toe-in as follows.
Standard value:
at the centre of tyre tread: 1 ± 2 mm
Toe angle (per wheel): 0°03' ± 06'
3. Loosen the lock nut, and unclip the bellows.
4. Adjust the toe-in by turning the left and right tie
rod turnbuckles by the same amount (in opposite
directions).
NOTE: The toe will move out as the left
turnbuckle is turned toward the front of the vehicle
and the right turnbuckle is turned toward the rear
of the vehicle.
5. Tighten the lock nut to the specified torque, and
tighten the bellows by the clip.
Tightening torque: 40 ± 5 N⋅m
6. Recheck the steering angle.

TIE ROD END BALL JOINT TURNING
TORQUE CHECK
M1372001500297
CAUTION
•Do not remove the tie rod end nut from the
ball joint. Loosen it and use special tool to
avoid possible damage to the ball joint
threads.
•Hang special tool with cord to prevent it from
falling.
1. Install special tool ball joint remover (MB991897)
as shown in the figure.
2. Turn the bolt and knob as necessary to make the
jaws of special tool parallel, tighten the bolt by
hand and confirm that the jaws are still parallel.
NOTE: When adjusting the jaws in parallel, make
sure the knob is in the position shown in the
figure.
3. Tighten the bolt with a wrench to disconnect the
tie rod end.4. Move the ball joint stud several times and install
the nut on the stud. Using special tool preload
socket (MB990326), measure the ball joint turning
torque.
Standard value: 0.5 − 2.5 N⋅m
5. If the turning torque exceeds the standard value,
replace the tie rod end.
6. If the turning torque is under the standard value,
check the ball joint for axial play or ratcheting. If
no axial play or ratcheting, the ball joint can be
re-used.
CAUTION
Always use a new ball joint nut as it is a
self-locking nut.
7. Install the tie rod end to the knuckle, then tighten a
new self-locking nut to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 25 ± 5 N⋅m
STATIONARY STEERING EFFORT CHECKM1372001700332
1. With the vehicle stopped on a flat and paved
surface, turn the steering wheel to the straight
ahead position.
2. Start the engine and set the engine idle speed.
Standard value: 1000 ± 100 r/min
3. Attach a spring balance to the outer
circumference of the steering wheel and measure
the steering force required to turn the steering
wheel from the straight ahead position to the left
and right (within a range of 1.5 turns). Also check
to be sure that there is no significant change in
the required steering effort.
Standard value:
Steering effort: 29 N or less
Fluctuation allowance: 5.9 N or less
4. If the measured value exceeds the standard
value, check and adjust the related parts.
