STEERING KNUCKLES
Removal & Installation
1) Raise and support vehicle. Remove hub bearing and axle
shaft. Remove tie rod or drag link end from steering knuckle arm.
Remove ABS sensor harness and bracket from steering knuckle.
2) Remove cotter pin from upper ball stud nut. Remove upper
and lower ball stud nuts. Using a brass hammer, strike steering
knuckle to remove knuckle from axle tube yokes.
3) To install, reverse removal procedure. On 216 FBI axles,
tighten lower and upper ball stud nuts to specification. See TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS table.
4) On 248 FBI axles, tighten lower ball stud nut to
specification. DO NOT install cotter pin at this time. Install and
tighten upper ball stud nut to specification. Retorque lower ball stud
nut to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table.
AXLE SHIFT MOTOR
Removal & Installation
1) Disconnect vacuum and wiring connector from shift housing.
Remove indicator switch, shift motor housing cover, gasket and shield
from housing.
2) To install, reverse removal procedure. Ensure shift fork
is correctly guided into shift collar groove. Tighten mounting bolts
to 96 INCH lbs. (11 N.m). Add 5 ounces (148 ml) of GL-5 gear lubrica\
nt
to shift motor housing through indicator switch mounting hole.
DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY
NOTE: Differential assembly consists of differential case and
components mounted in axle housing. For differential assembly
servicing, see DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY under OVERHAUL.
OVERHAUL
DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY
Disassembly
1) Remove axle shafts from differential. See AXLE SHAFT & HUB
BEARING under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
2) Note identification marks on bearing caps and axle housing
for reassembly reference. Bearing caps must be installed in original
location. If marks are not present, place marks on bearing caps and
axle housing.
3) Remove bolts and bearing caps. Place Axle Housing Spreader
(W-129-B) on axle housing so dowel pins engage with locating holes.
See Fig. 1 . Install hold-down clamps. Finger tighten turnbuckle on
axle housing spreader.
4) Install pilot stud and dial indicator on axle housing.
Position dial indicator so stem is resting against opposite side of
axle housing, with pressure on stem.
CAUTION: DO NOT spread axle housing more than .020" (.50 mm), or axle
housing may be damaged.
5) Adjust dial indicator to zero. Tighten turnbuckle enough
to spread axle housing for differential case removal while noting
reading on dial indicator. Dial indicator reading should not exceed .
020" (.50 mm).

INTRODUCTION TO MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM (MAP)
OVERVIEW OF MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM
The Motorist Assurance Program is the consumer outreach
effort of the Automotive Maintenance and Repair Association, Inc.
(AMRA). Participation in the Motorist Assurance Program is drawn from
retailers, suppliers, independent repair facilities, vehicle
manufacturers and industry associations.
Our organization's mission is to strengthen the relationship
between the consumer and the auto repair industry. We produce
materials that give motorists the information and encouragement to
take greater responsibility for their vehicles-through proper,
manufacturer-recommended, maintenance. We encourage participating
service and repair shops (including franchisees and dealers) to adopt
(1) a Pledge of Assurance to their Customers and (2) the Motorist
Assurance Program Standards of Service. All participating service
providers have agreed to subscribe to this Pledge and to adhere to the
promulgated Standards of Service demonstrating to their customers that
they are serious about customer satisfaction.
These Standards of Service require that an inspection of the
vehicle's (problem) system be made and the results communicated to the\
customer according to industry standards. Given that the industry did
not have such standards, the Motorist Assurance Program successfully
promulgated industry inspection communication standards in 1994-95 for
the following systems: Exhaust, Brakes, ABS, Steering and Suspension,
Engine Maintenance and Performance, HVAC, and Electrical Systems.
Further, revisions to all of these inspection were recently published.
Further, revisions to all of these inspection communication standards
are continually republished. In addition to these, standards for Drive
Train and Transmissions have recently been promulgated. Participating
shops utilize these Uniform Inspection & Communication Standards as
part of the inspection process and for communicating their findings to
their customers.
The Motorist Assurance Program continues to work
cooperatively and proactively with government agencies and consumer
groups toward solutions that both benefit the customer and are
mutually acceptable to both regulators and industry. We maintain the
belief that industry must retain control over how we conduct our
business, and we must be viewed as part of the solution and not part
of the problem. Meetings with state and other government officials
(and their representatives), concerned with auto repair and/or
consumer protection, are conducted. Feedback from these sessions is
brought back to the association, and the program adjusted as needed.
To assure auto repair customers recourse if they were not
satisfied with a repair transaction, the Motorist Assurance Program
offers mediation and arbitration through MAP/BBB-CARE and other non-
profit organizations. MAP conducted pilot programs in twelve states
before announcing the program nationally in October, 1998. During the
pilots, participating repair shops demonstrated their adherence to the
Pledge and Standards and agreed to follow the UICS in communicating
the results of their inspection to their customers. To put some
"teeth" in the program, an accreditation requirement for shops was
initiated. The requirements are stringent, and a self-policing method
