42. Install the cylinder end seal onto the steering rack
with its grooved side toward the piston.
Push in the cylinder end seal with your finger.
When installing the cylinder end seal, be careful not
damage the sealing face of the seal with the threads
and burrs at the staked position of the cylinder
housing.
Remove the vinyl tape from the steering rack, then
remove any residue from the tape adhesive.
Hold the gearbox using a C-clamp as shown.

Remove the C-clamp from the gearbox.
After tightening the cylinder end, stake the point of
the cylinder shown below. Stake the cylinder in the
position opposite from where the stake was removed
during disassembly,

49. Select the 32 mm shim(s) ('97 model onlv).
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.
Stake point, Depth: 1,0 mm (0.04 inl

SHIM SET(four shims)
Measure the clearance between the gearbox and
valve body unit using a feeler gauge. Measure the
clearance at the poinl midway between the two
mounting bolts.
GAUGE
Determine the required thickness of the 32 mm
shims by subtracting the clearance obtained in the
step "c" from the total thickness of the four shims.
(Total thickness of the 4 shims) - (Clearance) =
Reouired thickness of the shims
Select the shims so that the total thickness is close
to, but less than, the required thickness.
Example:
Measurement is 0.28 mm (0.011 in);
0.70-0.28=0.42 mm (0.028-0.011 = 0.017 in)
The selected shims should be 0,25 mm (0.010 inl and
0.15 mm (0.006 in) in thickness.
lf the required shim thickness is 0.10 mm or less, no
shrms are necessary.
53. Set the selected 32 mm shims on the bearing sur-
face of the gearbox housing.
VALVE BODY UNITla lbl.frl
Coat the new O-ring with grease, and carefully fit it
on the valve housing.
Apply grease to the needle bearing in the gearbox
housing.
Install the valve body unit on the gearbox housing
by engaging the gears. Note the valve body unit
installation position (direction of line connection).
Tighten the flange bolts to the specified torque.

Knuckle/Hub Replacement
Note these items during replacement:
. Replace the selt-locking nuts after removal.
. The vehicle should be on the ground before any bolts or nuts connected to rubber mounts or bushings are tightened.
. Torque the castle nuts to the lower torque specifications, then tighten them only far enough to align the slots with each
pin hole. Do not align the nuts by loosening.
o Use only genuine Honda wheel weights for aluminum wheels. Non'genuine wheel weights may corrode and damage
the aluminum wheels.
. Onthealuminum wheels, remove the center cap from the inside of the wheel after removing the wheel.
. Before installing the brake disc, clean the mating surfaces of the front hub and brake disc.
. Before installing the wheel. clean the mating surfaces ofthe brake disc and wheel.
. Wipe off the grease before tightening the nuts at the balljoints.
