Removal Procedure
1. Remove the air cleaner assembly. Refer to Air Cleaner Assembly Replacement (See: Filters/Air Cleaner Housing/Service and Repair) for the V6
engine or to Air Cleaner Assembly Replacement (See: Filters/Air Cleaner Housing/Service and Repair) for the V8 engine.
2. If equipped with the V6 engine, cover the air conditioning compressor in order to prevent power steering fluid from dripping on the air
conditioning compressor.
If equipped with the V8 engine, cover the generator in order to prevent power steering fluid from dripping on the generator.
3. Place drain pans under the vehicle.
Caution: Do not start the vehicle with any power steering gear inlet or outlet hoses disconnected. When disconnected, plug or cap all openings of
components. Failure to do so could result in contamination or loss of power steering fluid and damage to the system.
Note: Introducing too much air into the power steering system will increase the amount of time required to bleed the system. Maintain the fluid
level during this procedure.
4. Disconnect the power steering gear inlet hose (2) from the power steering pump (1). Plug the power steering pump outlet port. Cap the power
steering gear inlet hose.
5. Raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle (See: Vehicle Lifting/Service and Repair).
