Precautions for Liquid GasketABS005ZE
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface.

Remove liquid gasket completely from the liquid gasket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt
holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface with white gasoline (lighting and heating
use) to remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach liquid gasket tube to tube presser [SST: WS39930000 ( –
)].
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-48, "
RECOMMENDED CHEMICAL PRODUCTS AND
SEALANTS" .

Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.

If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.

Do not retighten after the installation.

After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill
engine oil and engine coolant.EMA0622D

mm (1.30 in).
In the figure, a commercial steering puller is used.
3. Remove oil pump.
INSTALLATION
1. Install the oil pump.
2. Install oil pump drive spacer as follows:
a. Insert oil pump drive spacer according to the directions of crank-
shaft key and the two flat surfaces of oil pump inner rotor.

If the positional relationship does not allow the insertion,
rotate oil pump inner rotor with a finger to allow spacer.
b. After confirming that the position of each part is in correct condi-
tion to allow for spacer, force fit spacer by lightly tapping with
plastic hammer until it contacts and does not go further.
3. Install in the reverse order of removal after this step.
1. Oil pump body 2. Oil pump outer rotor 3. Oil pump inner rotor
4. Oil pump cover 5. Oil pump drive spacer 6. Regulator valve
7. Regulator valve spring 8. Regulator valve plug

STEERING WHEELPFP:48430
On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceAGS000GW
CHECKING CONDITION OF INSTALLATION

Check installation condition of steering gear assembly, front suspension, axle and steering column.

Check if movement exists when steering wheel is moved up and down, to the left and right and to the axial
direction.

Check if the mounting bolts for steering gear assembly are loose
or not. Refer to PS-19, "
POWER STEERING GEAR AND LINK-
AGE" .
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL PLAY
1. Set tires to the straight ahead, start engine, then turn steering wheel to the left and right lightly, and mea-
sure steering wheel movement on the outer circumference when steering wheel is turned up to the point
where tires start moving.
CHECKING NEUTRAL POSITION ON STEERING WHEEL
Check neutral position on steering wheel after confirming that front wheel alignment is correct. Refer to FSU-
6, "Wheel Alignment Inspection" .
1. Set vehicle to the straight direction, check if steering wheel is in the neutral position.
2. If it is not in the neutral position, remove steering wheel and reinstall it correctly.
3. If the neutral position cannot adjust in the two teeth of steering gear assembly, loosen outer socket lock
nuts of steering outer sockets, then adjust outer socket by the same amount in the opposite direction.
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL TURNING FORCE
1. Park vehicle on a level and dry surface, set parking brake.
2. Remove driver air bag module from steering wheel. Refer to SRS-36, "
DRIVER AIR BAG MODULE" .
3. Start engine at idle, make steering fluid reach to normal operat-
ing temperature [50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F)], then check steering
wheel turning torque with pre-load gauge (SST).
4. If steering wheel turning force is out of the specification, check
relief hydraulic pressure of oil pump. Refer to PS-31, "
POWER
STEERING OIL PUMP" . End play of the axle direction for steering wheel : 0 mm (0 in)
SGIA0546E
Steering wheel play on the outer circumference : 0 − 35 mm (0 − 1.38 in)
Turning torque : 7.45 N·m (0.76 kg-m, 66 in-lb) or less

STEERING COLUMN
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Check if there is something wrong with jacket tube of steering column assembly and collar etc. And then if
they are damaged, replace with new one.

If vehicle has a collision light shocked, check column length “L”
as shown in the figure. Then if it is out of the specified value,
replace with new one.

Check the turning torque of steering column with preload gauge
(SST). If it is out of the specified value, repair it or replace with
new one.
INSTALLATION

Refer to PS-12, "Removal and Installation" for tightening torque. Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
Refer to component parts location and do not reuse non-reusable parts.

After removing/installing or replacing steering components, check wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-6,
"Wheel Alignment Inspection" .

After adjusting wheel alignment, adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-6, "Adjust-
ment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

After installing steering column to vehicle, check tilt device and
its operation range. Ranges of operation are shown in the figure.

Check if steering wheel operation can turn to the end of the left
and right smoothly.Steering column length “L”: 572 mm (22.52 in)
Turning torque : 0 − 0.2 N·m (0 − 0.021 kg-m, 0 − 1 in-lb)

a. To avoid damaging inner rack oil seal, wrap an OHP sheet
[approximately. 70 mm (2.76 in) × 100 mm (3.94 in) around rack
tooth. Place oil seal on sheet. Then, pull oil seal along with OHP
sheet until they pass the toothed section of rack, then remove it.
b. Insert rack oil seal (inner) to piston (rack Teflon ring) position
and push retainer to adjust screw side with fingers lightly, and
then make rack move in gear housing assembly, install rack oil
seal (inner) to fit with gear housing assembly.
c. When installing outer rack oil seal, cover the end of rack with an
OHP sheet [70 mm (2.76 in) × 100 mm (3.94 in)]. It will avoid
damaging rack oil seal. Then place oil seal on sheet. Pull rack oil
seal along with OHP sheet until they pass rack end. Then
remove OHP sheet.
d. Install end cover assembly to rack, move it to gear housing
assembly.
5. Using a 45 mm (1.77 in) open head (suitable tool), tighten end
cover assembly at the specified torque.
CAUTION:
Do not damage rack surface. If it is damaged, it may cause
oil leaks. Replace rack assembly.
6. After tightening end cover assembly, caulk cylinder at one point
as shown in the figure using a punch. This will prevent end cover
from getting loose.
7. Install sub-gear assembly to gear housing assembly.
CAUTION:
In order to protect oil seal from any damage, insert sub-
gear assembly out straightly.
8. Apply Genuine Nissan PSF or equivalent to O-ring. Install O-ring
to rear cover.
NOTE:
Do not reuse O-ring.
