4.
If necessary, replace lower pinion bearing as follows:
a. Heat rack housing over 176°F (80°C).
b. Tap housing with plastic hammer to free bearing from housing.
c. Reheat housing over 176°F (80°C) and install new lower bearing using service tool 09620-30010 or equivalent, noting correct bearing
direction.
5.
If necessary, install new rack bushings as follows:
a. Using service tool 09612-24010, or equivalent, remove rack bushing taking care not to damage Teflon rack bushing.
b. Using service tool 09612-24010, or equivalent, press new rack bushing in until service tool surface is even with edge of rack tube.
6.
If necessary, replace pinion oil seal as follows:
a. Remove pinion oil seal with service tools 09620-30010 and 09630-24012 or equivalents.
b. Using service tools 09620-30010 and 09630-24012 or equivalents, drive new pinion oil seal in so it protrudes .020 inch (.5 mm) with service

torque is 3.2 inch lbs. (3.7 kg-cm). Using service tool, loosen pinion bearing adjusting screw so pinion turning torque is 2-2.9 inch lbs. (2.3-3.3
kg-cm).
11.
Apply liquid sealer to pinion bearing locknut and to housing contact surface. Install locknut and using service tool 09612-24010 or equivalent,

a. Torque rack guide spring cap to 18 ft. lbs. (250 kg-cm) using service tool 09612-24010 or equivalent.
b. Return rack guide spring cap 25°.
c. Measure total preload with service tool 09612-24010 or equivalent. Preload should be 4.3-11.3 inch lbs. (5-13 kg-cm).
d. If preload is insufficient, retorque rack guide spring cap and return cap slightly less than 12°.
e. If preload is excessive, return rack guide spring cap slightly.
17.
Apply liquid sealer to locknut thread and to housing contact surface. Torque locknut to 51 ft. lbs. (700 kg-cm).
18.
Recheck total preload, if incorrect, readjust.
19.
Install dust cover.
20.
Install claw washers on rack aligning claws with groove in rack.
21.
