NOTE :
Before removing the front suspension sub-frame from the vehicle, the location of the sub-frame must be marked on
the body of the vehicle. Do this so the sub-frame can be relocated, upon reinstallation, against the body of vehicle in
the same location as before removal. If the front suspension sub-frame is not reinstalled in exactly the same location
as before removal, the preset front wheel alignment settings (caster and camber) may be lost.
19. Using a jack, slowly lower the sub-frame enough to access the intermediate shaft coupling at the steering gear pinion shaft.
20. Remove the steering gear assembly.
21. Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Installation Notes:
• After installing the new steering gear, perform a front end alignment procedure to reset the toe-in (See Front
Wheel Alignment in Section 10 Suspension).
