E: INSPECTION
1. BASIC INSPECTION
1) Clean all the disassembled parts, and check for wear, damage or any other faults, then repair or replace
as necessary.
2) When disassembling, check the inside of gearbox for water. If any water is found, carefully check the boot
for damage, input shaft dust seal, adjusting screw and boot clips for poor sealing. If faulty, replace with new
parts.
No. Parts Inspection Corrective action
1Input shaft(1) Bent input shaft
(2) Damage on serration
If the bend or damage is excessive, replace the entire
gearbox.
2Dust seal(1) Crack or damage
(2) Wear
If the outer wall slips, the lip is worn out or damage is
found, replace it with a new one.
3Rack & pinion Poor mating of rack with pinion
(1) Adjust the backlash properly.
By measuring the turning torque of the gearbox and slid-
ing resistance of rack, check if the rack & pinion engage
uniformly and smoothly with each other. (Refer to “Ser-
vice limit”.)
(2) Pull out the entire rack to allow viewing of the teeth,
and check for damage.
Even if abnormality is found in either (1) or (2), replace
the entire gearbox.
4Gearbox unit
(1) Bending of the rack shaft
(2) Bending of the cylinder portion
(3) Crack or damage on the cast
iron portion
Replace the gearbox with a new one.
(4) Wear or damage on rack bush-
ing
If the free play of rack shaft in radial direction is out of the
specified range, replace the gearbox with new one. (Refer
to “Service limit”.)
(5) Wear on input shaft bearing
If the free play of input shaft in radial and axial direction is
out of the specified range, replace the gearbox with a new
one. (Refer to “Service limit”.)
5Boot Crack, damage or deteriorationReplace.
6Tie–rod(1) Looseness of ball joint
(2) Bend of tie–rodReplace.
7Tie–rod endDamage or deterioration of dust
sealReplace.
8Adjusting screw

1) Lift-up the vehicle.
2) If a fluid leak is found, clean the fluid completely
from the suspect area, and turn the steering wheel
approx. 30 to 40 times to the left and right from lock
to lock, with the engine running, and check again
for leaks immediately, and also after a few hours
have passed.
3) Cause and solution for oil leakage from “a”
The oil seal is damaged. Replace the valve assem-
bly with a new one.
4) Cause and solution for oil leakage from “b”.
The torsion bar O–ring is damaged. Replace the
valve assembly with a new one.
5) Cause and solution for oil leakage from “c”.
The oil seal is damaged. Replace the valve assem-
bly or oil seal with a new one.
6) Cause and solution for oil leakage from “d”.
The pipe is damaged. Replace the faulty pipe or O-
ring.
7) Cause and solution for oil leakage from “g”.
The hose is damaged. Replace the hose with a
new one.
8) If leak is other than a, b, c, d or g, or if oil is leak-
ing from gearbox, move the right and left boots to-
ward tie-rod end side, respectively, with the
gearbox mounted to the vehicle, and remove fluid
from surrounding portions. Then, turn the steering
wheel from lock to lock about thirty to forty times
with the engine running, and make comparison of
the leaked portion immediately after and several
hours after this operation.
(1) Leakage from “e”
The cylinder seal is damaged. Replace the rack
bushing with a new one.
(2) Leakage from “f”
There are two possible causes. Perform the fol-
lowing step first. Remove the pipe assembly B
from the valve housing, and close the circuit us-
ing ST.
ST 926420000 PLUG
Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock ap-
prox. 30 to 40 times with the engine running,
then inspect the leaked portion immediately af-
ter and several hours after this operation.
•If leakage from “f” is noted again:
The oil seal of pinion & valve assembly is dam-
aged. Replace the pinion & valve assembly with a
new one. Or replace the oil seal and the parts that
are damaged during disassembly with new ones.
•If oil stops leaking from “f”:
The oil seal of rack housing is damaged. Replace
the oil seal and parts that are damaged during dis-
assembly with new ones.
F: ADJUSTMENT
1) Adjust the front toe.
SPECTION, Wheel Alignment.>
Standard of front toe:
IN 3 — OUT 3 mm (IN 0.12 — OUT 0.12 in)
2) Adjust the steering angle of the wheels.
Specification of steering angle:
3) If the steering wheel spokes are not horizontal
when wheels are set in the straight ahead position,
or error is more than 5° on the periphery of the
steering wheel, correctly re-install the steering
wheel.
4) If the steering wheel spokes are not horizontal
with vehicle set in the straight ahead position after
this adjustment, correct it by turning the right and
left tie–rods in the opposite direction from each oth-
er by the same angle.

C: INSPECTION
Check all disassembled parts for wear, damage or other problems. Repair or replace the defective parts as
necessary.
CAUTION:
Although the surface layer materials of rubber hoses have excellent weathering resistance, heat re-
sistance and resistance for low temperature brittleness, they are likely to be damaged chemically by
brake fluid, battery electrolyte, engine oil and automatic transmission fluid and their service lives are
to be very shortened. Wipe off hoses immediately if any of these come into contact with the hoses.
Since resistances for heat or low temperature brittleness are gradually declining according to time
accumulation of hot or cold conditions for the hoses and their service lives are shortening accord-
ingly, it is necessary to perform careful inspection frequently when the vehicle is used in hot weather
areas, cold weather areas and a driving condition in which many steering operations are required in
short time.
Particularly continuous work of relief valve over 5 seconds causes to reduce service lives of the hos-
es, the oil pump, the fluid, etc. due to over heat.
