POWER PLANT MOUNT - General Information32-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
Inertia principal axes system is incorporated into
the engine mount system.Upper installation of roll mount reduces engine
rolling, and increase of insulator bore also reduces
idle vibration.

AA"LOWER ARM ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
Lift the transmission with a transmission jack, and then
withdraw the front mounting bolt on the left lower arm
assembly.
AB"TIE ROD END AND KNUCKLE DISCONNECTION
Caution
1. The thread on the ball joint may be damaged. Do
not remove the tie rod end mounting nut from the
ball joint.Just loosen the nut. For this operation, use
the special tool.
2. Suspend the special tool with a cord to prevent it
from dropping.
AC"CROSSMEMBER ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
Retain the crossmember with a transmission jack, and then
remove the crossmember mounting bolt.

assembly.
INSPECTION
LOWER ARM BALL JOINT ROTATION STARTING
TORQUE CHECK
1. After shaking the ball joint stud several times, use the
special tool to measure the rotation starting torque of
the lower arm ball joint.
Standard value: 0.5 - 3.4 N·m
2. When the measured value exceeds the standard value,
replace the lower arm assembly.
3. When the measured value is lower than the standard
value, check that the lower arm ball joint turns smoothly
without excessive play. If there is no excessive play, the
ball joint can be reused.
PILLOW BALL BUSHING ROTATION STARTING
TORQUE CHECK
1. Insert the bolt to the lower arm pillow ball bushing, in
the opposite direction, insert the washer then install the
nut. After rotating the inner sleeve (contained washer)
several times, measure the rotation starting torque of
the lower arm pillow ball bushing using special tool.
Standard value: 0.5 - 3.0 N·m
2. When the measured value exceeds the standard value,
replace the pillow ball bushing.
3. When the measured value is lower than the standard
value, check that the lower arm pillow ball bushing turns
smoothly without excessive play. If there is no excessive
play, the pillow ball bushing can be reused.
LOWER ARM BALL JOINT DUST COVER CHECK
1. Check the dust cover for cracks or damage by pushing
it with finger.
2. If the dust cover is cracked or damaged, replace the
lower arm assembly.
NOTE
If the dust cover is cracked or damaged, it is possible
that there may also be damage to the ball joint.
When it is damaged during service work, replace the
dust cover.

Caution
1. To prevent the ball joint thread from damage, the tie
rod end mounting nut must be only loosened but not
removed from the ball joint. Be sure to use the special
tool.
2. Support the special tool with a cord to prevent it from
coming off.
AB"FIXTURE/BUSHING/STABILIZER BAR REMOVAL
Carry out the following operations to ensure working space
in order to remove the fixture, the bushing and the stabilizer
bar.
1. Use a transmission jack to hold the crossmember, and
then remove the crossmember mounting nuts and bolts.
2. Lower the crossmember until the fixture, the bushing and
the stabilizer bar can be removed.
Caution
Be careful not to lower the crossmember excessively,
otherwise the power steering return hose bracket may
deform.

STEERING -General Information37A-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
The system has been equipped with the MOMO
leather 3-spoke-type steering wheel with built-in
SRS airbag.
The steering column is equipped with tilt steering
mechanism.
The power steering is an integral rack and piniontype that combines the steering gear and linkage
into one light-weight and compact assembly.
The steering system uses a vane oil pump with
a fluid flow control system, so that steering effort
varies with engine speed.
