Troubleshooting
Fluid Leaks
Check the gearbox assembly for oil leaks carefully. Oil can leak out of various points. depending on location of thefaulty oil seals/seal rings. Check the following before removing the gearbox from the frame_
Steering GearboxLeaking from the oil seal on thetop of the valve housing.Replace the valve oil seal fromthe valve housing.
Leaking from cylinder end intoleft tie rod boot.Replace the valve oil seal tromthe pinion shaft.
Replace the cylinder end seal onthe gear housing side.
Leaking lrom cylinder end intoright tie-rod boot.Replace the cylinder end seal onthe cylinder end side.
Leaking lrom the shaft upper endsectron or pin engagement sec,tion ol the pinion shaft.Replace the valve body unit.
Tighten the connector. lf it's stillleakinO, replace the Iine, cylinderor valve housing unit.
Leaking from cylinder line A or Bconnections {at tlare nut}.
Leaking caused by a damagedcylinde.line A or B.Replace cvljnder line A or B.
Leaking from feed line and returnline ioint fitting on the valve bodyunit (at flare nut).
Tighten the connector. ll it's stillleaking, replace the line,,oint fit,ting or valv6 housing.

NOTE:
. Connect each hose to the corresponding pipe securely
until it contacts the stop on the line. Install the clamp
or adiustable clamp at the specified distance from the
hose end as shown.
. Add the power steering fluid to the specified level on
the reservoir and check for leaks.

. Position the adiustable hose clamps at the points
indicated (a) in the drawing above.

Measure the clearance between the gearbox andvalve body unit using a feeler gauge as shown.
NOTE: Measure the clearance at the point midwaybetween the two mounting bolts.
Determine the required thickness of the 32 mmshims by subtracting the clearance obtained in thestep "c" from the total thickness of the four shims.(Total thickness of the 4 shims) - (Clearance) =
Required thickness of the shims
NOTE: Select the shims so that the total thicknessis close to. but less than, the required thickness,

Example:
Measurement is 0.28 mm (0.011 in):0.70 - O.28 = 0.42 mm (0.028 - 0.011 = O.Ot7 inl
The selected shims should be 0.28 mm lO.OtO in) and0.15 mm {0.006 in} in thickness.
lf the r€quired shim thickness is 0.10 mm or less, noshims are necessarv.
