Grease the inside surface of the cylinder end, then
install the cylinder end by screwing it into the cylin-
der housing.
After tightening the cylinder end, stake the point of
the cylinder housing shown below.
NOTE: Stake in the cylinder in the position opposite
from where the stake was removed during disas-
semblv.

,t8. Select the 32 mm shim(s).
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-
rows.
Shim r€lection:-'1. Set the four 32 mm shims on the b€aring surface of
the gearbox housing. Total thickness of the four
shims should eoual no more than 0.70 mm.
Shim set: tour 32 mm shims (Thickness: 0.10 mm,
0.15 mm, 0.20, 0.25 mm respectivelyl

-4. Determine the requifed thickness of the 32 mm
shims by subtracting the clearance obtained in thestep -3 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 th6 total thicknessis close to, but less than the required thickness.
Exampls:
Measu.ement is 0.28 mm (0.011 in):
0.70 - 0.28 = 0.42 mm (0.028 - 0.011 = 0.0't7 in)
The selected shims should be 0.25 mm (O.O1O in) and0.15 mm (0.005 in) in thickness.
lf the required shim thickness is 0.lO mm or less, no
shims are necessary.
i[9. Set the selected 32 mm shims on the bearing sur-face of the g€arbox housing.
50, Coat the new O-ring with gresse and install it in thegroove in the gearbox 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: Note the valve body unit installation posi-
tion (direction of pipe connection).
Tighten the flange bolts to the specified torque.
