Install the steering column, and make sure the
wires are not caught or pinched by any parts.
Insertthe upper end ofthe steering joint onto the
steering shaft {A) (line up the bolt hole (B) with the
flat portion (C) on the shaft).

Slip the lower end of the steering joint onto the
pinion shaft {D) (line up the bolt hole with the
groove (E) around the shaft), and loosely lnstallthe
lower joint bolt. Be sure that the lower joint bolt is
securely in the groove in the pinion shaft.
Pull on the steering joint to make su re that the
steering joint is fully seated. Then installthe upper
joint bolt, and tighten it to the specified torque.
Tighten the lower joint bolt to the specified torque.
Finish the installation, and note these items:
. Make sure the wire harness is routed and
fastened properly.
. Make sure the connectors are properly connected.. Reinstallthe steering wheel (see page 17-8).
. Reconnect the battery.- Do the power window control unitreset
procedure {see page 22-128).- Enter the anti-theft code for the radio, then
enter the custmer's radio station presets.
- Set the clock.. Verify horn, turn signal switch, and cruise control
switch operation.. Check wheel alignment, if necessary (see page
18-4).. Do the engine control module (ECM) idle learn
procedu re {see page '11-139).
