Steering gear, adjusting
NOTE:
- Two mechanics are required when adjusting. Adjust with engine switched off.
- Raise vehicle on hoist.
- Wheels in straight-ahead position.
- By turning the steering wheel back and forth (about 30 ° from center axis) a knocking noise will be heard if there is excessive play.
- The second mechanic must carefully screw the adjustment screw into the cover until the knocking noise can no longer be heard inside the vehicle.
- Perform road test to ensure steering returns to center without sticking.
- Secure lock nut with a punch mark
