to solines of the Dinion shaft.
VALVE HOUSING
Separate the valve housing from the pinion shafv
valve using a press.
Check the inner wall of the valve housing where the
seal ring slides with your finger. lf there is a step in
the wall, the valve housing is worn. Replace the
valve housing.
Note these items during inspection:
o There may be the sliding marks from the seal
ring on the wall of the valve housing. Replace
the valve housing only if the wall is stepped.
. When the valve housing is replaced, install new
shim{s) on the bearing surface of the housing to
adiust the thickness.
Check the inside ofvalve housingfor a step in the wall.

26. Check for wear, burrs and other damage to the
edges of the grooves in the sleeve.
NOTE: The pinion shaft and sleeve are a precision
matched set. lf either the oinion shaft or sleeve
must be replaced, replace both parts as a set.

Reassembly (cont'd)
Apply power steering fluid to the surface of the spe-
cial tool. Set the new seal rings over the special tool
from the smaller diameter end of the tool. and
expand the seal rings. Install two rings at a time
Jrom each end ofthe sleeve.
Note these items when installing the seal ring:
. Do not over-expand the seal ring. Install the resin
seal rings with care so as not to damage them.
After installation, be sure to contract the seal
rings using the specialtool {sizing tool).
. There are two types of sleeve seal rings: black
and brown. Do not mix the different types of
sleeve seal rings as they are not compatible.
Align the special tool with each groove in the sleeve,
and slide a sleeve seal ring into each groove. After
installation, compress the seal rings with your fin-
gers temporarily.

18. Apply power steering fluid to the surface of the pin-
ion shaft. Assemble the sleeve over the Dinion shaft
by aligning the locating pin on the inside of the
sleeve with the cutout in the shaft. Then install the
new circlip securely in the pinion shaft groove.
Note these items during reassembly:
. Be caretul not to damage the valve seal ring
when inserting the sleeve.
. Install the circlip with its radiused side facing out.
Apply power steering fluid to the seal ring lip of the
valve oil seal. then install the seal in the valve hous-
ing using a hydraulic press and special tools. Install
the valve oil seal with its grooved side facing the tool.

NOTE: Only reinstall the original 32 mm shim(s)
when the steering gearbox is reassembled without
replacing the pinion shaft. valve housing, and gear-
box housing with new ones.
lf the pinion shaft, valve housing, and gearbox
housing are replaced, select the new shim{s) as fol-
lows.
Shim selection:
Set the four 32 mm shims on the bearing surface of the
gearbox housing. Total thickness of the four shims
should equal no more than 0.70 mm.
Shim set: four 32 mm shims (Thickness: 0.10 mm, 0.15
mm, 0.20 mm, 0.25 mm respectively)
NOTE: The four 32 mm shims do not have thickness
identification marks. Measure the thickness of each shim
using a micrometer, and mark the shim for identification.

ADJUSTING BOLT
After making the adjustment to the adjusting bolt,
make sure the head of the adjusting bolt is in this
position to allow the jaw to pivot.
With a wrench, tighten the pressure bolt until the
ball joint shaft pops loose from the steering arm.
@ wear eye protection. The balt iointcan break loose suddenly and scatter dirt or other
dsbris in your ey€s.
