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-17, "
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-38, "
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-29, "
POWER
STEERING OIL PUMP" .

Removal and Installation" .
3. Disconnect drain hoses.
4. Remove glass lid. Refer to RF-26, "
GLASS LID" .
5. Remove motor mounting screws. Remove sunroof motor assembly and disconnect harness connector.
CAUTION:

Before removing sunroof motor assembly, make sure
that sunroof is fully closed.

After removing sunroof motor assembly, do not attempt
to rotate sunroof motor as a single unit.
6. Remove nuts on the front end and side rail.
7. Remove curtain air bag bracket bolts, then remove curtain air bag bracket from the rail side. Refer to SRS-44, "
Removal and
Installation" .

REAR FINAL DRIVE ASSEMBLY
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
7. Place the J-34309-11 “R200A” pinion height adapter onto the gauge plate and tighten it by hand.
CAUTION:
Make sure all machined surfaces are clean.
8. Position the side bearing discs, J-25269-4, and arbor firmly into the side bearing bores. Install the bearing caps and tighten bear-
ing cap mounting bolts to the specified torque. Refer to RFD-18,
"COMPONENTS" .
9. Select the correct standard pinion height adjusting washer thick- ness. Select by using a standard gauge of 3 mm (0.12 in) and
your J-34309-101 feeler gauge. Measure the distance between
the J-34309-11 pinion height adapter including the standard
gauge and the arbor.
10. Write down exact measurement (the value of feeler gauge).
11. Correct the pinion height washer size by referring to the “pinion head number”.
There are two numbers painted on the drive pinion. The first
one refers to the drive pinion and drive gear as a matched
set. This number should be the same as the number on the
drive gear. The second number is the “pinion head height
number”. It refers to the ideal pinion height from standard
for quietest operation. Use the following chart to determine
the correct pinion height washer.
