First, turn the stabilizer bar up and place the rack and pinion on the center crossmember, fixing it there with two bolts and tightening them to 70 Nm (52 ft. lbs.). Install dash seals when necessary and adjust the power steering rack so it sits correctly in its position. Make certain that once the front suspension crossmember is reinstalled, it goes back to its original position on the body so that wheel alignment is not affected. Jack the crossmember into the marked spots on the body, keep it straight by support with the transmission jack and make sure the seals at the dash align before you finish. Connect the front frame member to the body with four tightened bolts (150 Nm/111 ft. lbs.), afterward get rid of the jack supporting the transmission. Fit the retainers over the cushions, then tighten each cushion retainer screw to 30 Nm (22 ft. lbs.). Route the
Power Steering Hose clamps onto the crossmember, press in and lock a left new push clip and tighten the right screw to 8 Nm (71 in. lbs.). Attach the pressure hose to the rack and pinion and push the tube nut to 32 Nm (24 ft. lbs.). Add the return hose and ensure the tube nut is turned to 20 Nm (15 ft. lbs.). First, attach the heat shield to the crossmember using three screws, then make sure the two at the front are tightened to 35 in. lbs. and the rear one is tightened to 150 in. lbs. Install the front
Engine Mount using the bolt and install the rear engine mount as well. When your airplane is equipped, install the engine belly pan. Before the outer
Tie Rod End is put on the knuckle, make sure the seal boot is undamaged. Screw the outer tie rod end onto the knuckle arm and use a new mounting nut on the stud. Tighten it to 132 Nm (97 ft. lbs.). Place and tighten the tire and wheel tightly to 135 Nm (100 ft. lbs.), lower the vehicle and take off the steering wheel holder. Make sure the front wheels have no tilt, place the intermediate shaft in the middle of the rack and pinion pinion shaft and then fit it securely onto the shaft. Spin the steering wheel to the right around 90° so the intermediate shaft coupling bolt will fit easily and tighten it until it measures 42 Nm (31 ft. lbs.). Change the position of the floor carpet, correct the steering wheel, fill the power steering system, inspect for leaks and turn the front wheel toe as needed.
