WARNING: Never loosen, reposition or deform the tie-rod adjusting sleeve aligner bracket. Incorrect positioning of the tie-rod adjusting sleeve clamps may result in steering linkage binding and loss of vehicle control. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury to the vehicle occupant(s).
NOTE: Make sure the steering linkage nut retainers are correctly positioned on the nuts to allow for cotter pin installation. Do not tighten or loosen the nut to align the retainer slot with the cotter pin hole. Overtightening of the fasteners may result in premature failure of steering linkage components.
NOTE: Position the outer drag link so it is parallel with the wheel knuckle before tightening the outer tie-rod end nut.
NOTE: Count the number of turns required to remove the tie rods or drag links for reference during assembly.
NOTE: The sector shaft arm nut has a dry adhesive on the threads. Do not reuse the sector shaft arm nut.
