Before removing the steering wheel and air bag module assembly, always refer to GROUP 52B -
Service Precautions (P.52B-16), Air bag Module and Clock Spring (P.52B-237). Also, set the front
wheels so that they are facing straight forward, and remove the ignition key. If you fail to do this,
the SRS clock spring will be damaged, causing the SRS air bag to be inoperative and serious
injury.

<> SELF LOCKING NUTS (CONNECTION FOR
TIE ROD END AND LOWER ARM BALL JOINT)
REMOVAL
Do not remove the nut from ball joint. Loosen it and use
special tool MB991897 to avoid possible damage to ball
joint threads.
Hang special tool MB991897 with a cord to prevent it
from falling.
1. Replace the self locking nut for lower arm ball joint with a
regular nut, because the original one is a little bit large to
install special tool MB991897. Install special tool MB991897
as shown in the figure.
2. Turn the bolt and knob as necessary to make the jaws of
special tool parallel, tighten the bolt by hand and confirm
that the jaws are still parallel.
NOTE: When adjusting the jaws in parallel, make sure the
knob is in the position shown in the figure.
3. Tighten the bolt with a wrench to disconnect the lower arm
ball joint, tie rod end and remove the self locking nut.
