57-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Steering box
The steering box is located behind the first cross member of the chassis and is secured to the chassis rail with four
bolts. The steering box is of the worm and roller type and has a rotary control valve. The steering box is connected to
the steering knuckles of the front road wheels by the drop arm, drag link and track rod. The steering box is lubricated
by the hydraulic fluid in the housing. The input shaft is attached to the steering wheel via the intermediate shaft and
steering column. The drop arm is secured to the output shaft with a nut and tab washer. A ball joint allows movement
between drop arm and drag link, the ball joint is secured with a locknut. The steering box requries approximately 3.5
turns from lock to lock.
As a maintenance aid, an alignment bolt can be used to lock the drop arm at the steering box centre position. The bolt
fits in a groove in the rear face of the drop arm and screws in to a threaded hole on the bottom of the steering box
housing.

57-14 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The PAS pump is located on the auxiliary housing, two bolts go through the PAS pump, mounting bracket and into
the auxiliary housing. One bolt also attaches the mounting bracket to the PAS pump, two bolts secure the mounting
bracket to the auxiliary housing. An inlet adaptor pipe with a seal is secured to the bottom of the pump with two bolts.
A drive pulley is attached to the pump drive shaft with three bolts, and is belt driven at a ratio of 1.35 crankshaft
revolutions to 1 of the drive pulley. A coupling on the rear of the PAS pump rotates the water pump impeller located
in the auxiliary housing. Fluid is supplied to the PAS pump inlet from the reservoir through a flexible hose at low
(suction) pressure. Fluid at high pressure from the PAS pump outlet is supplied to the rotary control valve on the
steering box.
The PAS pump is a roller vane type and has an internal pressure regulator and flow control valve. The roller vanes
can move in slots in the pumps rotor and are moved outwards by centrifugal force as the pump rotates. The pump
rotor rotates in the pump housing, the internal shape of the housing forms a 'cam' shape. Due to the 'cam' shape the
volume of the housing decreases between the inlet and outlet ports.
As the pump rotor rotates towards the pump inlet the volume between the roller vanes and the pump housing
increases, this action causes a depression in the chamber between the pump roller vanes and the housing. As the
rotation continues the chamber is opened to the pump inlet, and the depression in the chamber causes fluid to be
drawn in. The roller vanes continue past the inlet port, closing off the inlet port and trapping the fluid in the chamber
between the rollers and the pump housing.
The internal 'cam' shape of the pump housing causes the rollers to move closer together as the pump rotor rotates
towards the outlet port. The reduced volume of the chamber between the roller vanes causes the fluid to become
pressurised. When the chamber is opened to the outlet port of the pump the fluid escapes at high pressure. The roller
vanes continue turning and go past the outlet port, closing off the chamber between the two roller vanes.
As rotation continues the inlet sequence begins again. The inlet and pressurisation/outlet sequences continue as the
pump rotates, and is repeated between each two roller vanes. The pump is a positive displacement type and the
potential pump output increases with engine (drive pulley) speed. The pressure relief and flow control valve regulates
flow/pressure by diverting fluid back to the pump inlet through internal recirculation passages in the pump body.
Steering damper
The steering damper is located behind and just below the first cross member of the chassis. The ends of the steering
damper have steel 'eyes' welded on, rubber bushes are installed in each 'eye'. The steering damper is attached
between brackets on the chassis rail and the drag link. Each end of the steering damper is secured by a bolt and
locknut. The hydraulic damper absorbs shocks in the steering, caused by road wheel deflections when operating on
rough terrain.

necessary, fill PAS fluid reservoir to upper level
indicator with recommended fluid.
+ CAPACITIES, FLUIDS AND
LUBRICANTS, Fluids.
CAUTION: Ensure no dirt is allowed to enter
the steering reservoir when the cap is
removed.
3.Start engine and run to normal operating
temperature.
4.Position container to catch fluid spillage from
steering box.
5.With engine at idle speed, and an assistant
turning the steering from lock to lock, loosen
bleed screw on top of steering box. Keep PAS
fluid reservoir topped up and allow all air to
bleed from system. When fluid from bleed
screw is free of air, tighten bleed screw.
CAUTION: Do not hold steering at full lock
for longer than 10 seconds.
6.Stop engine.
7.Clean spilled PAS fluid from steering box and
surrounding area.
CAUTION: Power steering fluid will damage
paint finished surfaces. If spilled,
immediately remove fluid and clean area
with water.
8.Check fluid level in PAS fluid reservoir and fill to
upper level mark. If fluid is aerated, wait until
fluid is free from bubbles.
9.Fit PAS fluid reservoir filler cap.

The following procedure assumes that the front
wheel alignment is correctly adjusted.
Adjust
1.Raise front of vehicle, and position the road
wheels at straight ahead.
WARNING: Do not work on or under a
vehicle supported only by a jack. Always
support the vehicle on safety stands.
2.Remove nut securing drag link to drop arm.
Using tool LRT-57-036 break taper joint and
release drag link from drop arm.
3.Fit centralising bolt to steering box and ensure
that front road wheels are in the straight ahead
position.
4.Loosen clamp bolts on drag link.

5.Adjust drag link so that taper joint is centralised
in drop arm, then tighten drag link clamp bolts:
Tighten M8 bolts to 22 Nm (16 lbf.ft) and M10
bolts to 33 Nm (24 lbf.ft).
6.Connect drag link to drop arm and tighten nut to

9.Road test the vehicle and check that the
steering wheel is centralised. If steering wheel
is not centralised, proceed as follows.
10.Slacken drag link adjuster clamp bolts.

adjust the length of the drag link to bring the
steering wheel to the central position.
CAUTION: Repositioning the steering wheel
on its splines cannot correct small (less
than 5
°) errors in steering wheel alignment.
Always rectify small errors in alignment by
adjusting the drag link as detailed above,
ensuring that steering box centralisation is
maintained.
