47-2 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
Front and rear propeller shafts transmit the drive from the transfer box to the axles.
On vehicles from 03 model year fitted with the 4.6l V8 engine and 4HP24 transmission, the front propeller shaft is 15
mm (0.6 in) longer and the rear propeller shaft is 15mm (0.6 in) shorter than those used on vehicles with the 4.0l V8
and Td5 engines. This is to accomodate an increase in length of the 4HP24 transmission.
Front propeller shaft
1Hookes joint
2Grease nipple
3Universal joint
4Gaiter/Sliding spline joint
5Lubrication point
The front propeller shaft consists of a tube with a universal joint and a sliding spline joint at the front end, and a
Hookes joint at the rear end. The universal joint is bolted to the pinion flange of the front axle differential. The Hookes
joint is bolted to the front output shaft of the transfer box.
The Hookes joint is lubricated during manufacture and sealed for life. A grease nipple is installed in the universal joint
to lubricate the serviceable, sealed needle bearings of the joint. The sliding spline joint is sealed with a gaiter and
lubricated through a lubrication point on the tube. Because of the proximity of a chassis crossmember to the front
propeller shaft, the lubrication point is normally sealed with a grub screw. During maintenance, the grub screw is
temporarily replaced by a slave grease nipple to lubricate the sliding spline joint.

FRONT AXLE
54-2 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
The front axle consists of an axle casing with a differential unit attached to the right of the vehicle centre line. A wheel
hub is installed in a steering knuckle at each end of the axle casing and connected to the differential unit by a drive
shaft.
Axle casing
The axle casing is of welded construction, with brackets on the casing exterior for attachment to the front suspension.
Yokes at each end of the casing incorporate upper and lower ball joints for attachment of the steering knuckles.
A differential cover on the front of the axle casing contains an oil level plug for checking and replenishment of the
differential lubricating oil. A magnetic drain plug is installed on the underside of the casing. An oil seal is installed in
each end of the axle casing to prevent leakage past the drive shafts.
The interior of the axle casing is ventilated through a breather tube inserted in a red plastic sleeve in the top of the
casing. The open end of the breather tube is located in the left rear corner of the engine compartment.
Differential unit
The differential unit is of the spiral bevel type, lubricated by splash oil. The unit consists of a differential carrier
attached to a pinion housing. In the pinion housing, the pinion is splined to a drive flange which is secured with a bolt
and washer. An oil seal prevents leakage past the drive flange.
Steering knuckle
The steering knuckles are mounted on upper and lower ball joints in the yokes at the end of the axle casing. A tension
collet, in the lower mounting point of each steering knuckle, accommodates manufacturing tolerances to enable the
correct tightening of both ball joints. Lugs are incorporated on the steering knuckles for attachment of the steering
system drag link and track rod.

STEERING
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 57-5
Description
General
The major steering components comprise an impact absorbing telescopic steering column, a Power Assisted Steering
(PAS) box, a PAS pump, and fluid reservoir. Hydraulic fluid from the fluid reservoir is filtered and then supplied
through the suction line to the inlet on the PAS pump. The PAS pump supplies fluid to the steering box through a
pressure line routed above the front cross member. Fluid returns to the reservoir along the same route through a
return line. On LH drive vehicles the pipe route above the front cross member is still used, the length of pipe acting
as an oil cooler.
To minimise driver's injury in the event of an accident the steering system has a number of safety features including
a collapsible steering column. An additional safety feature is an air bag located in the steering wheel.

+ RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description - SRS.
Steering column assembly and intermediate shaft
The steering column central shaft comprises of two shafts, the upper shaft is splined to accept the steering wheel and
located in bearings in the column tube. A universal joint is located on the bottom of the upper shaft, the joint allows
for angular movement between the upper and lower shafts. The lower shaft is made in two parts, the top section of
the lower shaft is located outside of the lower section. The two sections of the lower shaft are connected by two nylon
injection moulded shear pins. The lower shaft goes through a lower bearing attached to the bulkhead, the lower shaft
is connected by a universal joint to the intermediate shaft in the engine compartment.
Steering column
An upper column tube provides for the location of the steering lock and ignition switch and also the steering switch
gear and a rotary coupler. The rotary coupler provides the electrical connection for the steering wheel mounted airbag,
switches and horn. The upper mounting bracket has two slots, a slotted metal bracket is held in each slot by four resin
shear pins.
The column is mounted on four captive studs which are located on a column mounting bracket. The captive studs
pass through the metal brackets, locknuts secure the steering column to the bulkhead. The two lower mountings are
fixed and cannot move when loads are applied to them. The upper mounting is designed to disengage or deform when
a load is applied, allowing the column to collapse in the event of an accident. The steering column must be replaced
as a complete assembly if necessary.
When an axial load is applied to the upper column tube, energy absorption is achieved by the following mechanism:
lthe mounting bracket deforms,
lthe resin shear pins holding the slotted metal brackets shear,
lthe top mounting bracket slides out of the slotted metal brackets.
The slotted metal brackets remain on the captive studs on the bulkhead. If the column mounting moves, injection
moulded shear pins retaining the two sections of the lower column shaft will shear. This allows the two sections of the
lower shaft to 'telescope' together.
In the event of a collision where the steering box itself moves, two universal joints in the column allow the intermediate
shaft to articulate, minimising movement of the column towards the driver. If movement continues energy absorption
is achieved by the following mechanism:
lthe decouple joint in the intermediate shaft will disengage,
lthe lower section of the steering column shaft will move through the lower bearing,
lthe injection moulded shear pins retaining the two sections of the lower column shaft will shear.
This allows the two sections of the lower shaft to 'telescope' together reducing further column intrusion. Protection to
the drivers face and upper torso is provided by an SRS airbag module located in the centre of the steering wheel.

Reservoir

2Reservoir body (dual PAS/ACE shown )
3Filter
4Supply connection
5Return connection
The fluid reservoir is made of moulded plastic and is located on LH side of the engine compartment, on a bracket
which is attached to the inner wing. Dependent on the vehicles specification the reservoir may be a dual PAS/ACE,
or PAS only reservoir. Both types of reservoir are similar to each other the dual PAS/ACE reservoir has two chambers,
the PAS only reservoir has one chamber of a larger capacity. On both types of reservoir the PAS chamber has its own
filler cap and is identified by lettering on the reservoir body.
A filter of fine polyester mesh is moulded into the base of the chamber. The filter removes particulate matter from the
fluid before it is drawn into the supply connection and is non-serviceable. Upper and lower level marks are moulded
into the reservoir body, the reservoir is fitted with filler cap, a seal in the cap prevents leakage. The filler cap is pushed
onto a latch and turned through 90
° to lock. A breather hole is incorporated in the cap to allow venting of air due to
fluid level changes during operation. The breather hole also allows air that may be in the fluid to separate out and vent
to atmosphere.
The reservoir holds hydraulic fluid and allows for expansion and contraction of the fluid due to temperature variations.
With the reservoir correctly filled the inlet to the PAS pump will be kept covered at normal operational attitudes. The
fluid flowing to the reservoir is cooled by convection from the pipe surfaces, the fluid held in the reservoir also allows
convection from the sides of the reservoir to take place. The total capacity of the reservoir with PAS only is 1000 cc
(0.264 US gallons), for vehicles fitted with PAS and ACE the total capacity of the reservoir is 500 cc (0.132 US
gallons).

STEERING
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 57-13
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
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

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.
