NOTE: When measuring, remove the bellows from
the rack housing. Measure the pinion torque through
the whole stroke of the rack.
If the measured value is not within the standard
range, first adjust the rack support cover, and then
check the total pinion torque again.
If the total pinion torque cannot be adjusted to within
the standard range by adjusting the rack support
cover, check the rack support cover, rack support
spring, rack support and replace any parts if neces

TIE ROD SWING RESISTANCE CHECK
1. Give 10 hard swings to the tie rod.
AC000997
2. Measure the tie ro d swin g resist ance [tie rod
swing to rque] with a spring bala n ce.
St andard va lue: 8 − 27 N [1.5 − 4.9 N⋅m]
3.If the measu r ed value exceeds the st a ndard
value , replace the tie rod.
4. If the measured value is below the st a ndard valu e,
th e tie rod can be re-use d if it swings smo o thly
wit hout e xce ssive play .

Measure the total pinion torque through the
whole stroke of the rack.
1. Using special tool preload socket (MB991006),
rotate the pinion shaft at the rate of one rotation in
4 to 6 seconds to check the total pinion torque and
the change in torque.
Standard value:
Total pinion torque: 0.8 − 2.1 N⋅m
[Change in torque: 0.6 N
⋅m or less]
Total pinion torque: 0.7 − 2.1 N⋅m
[Change in torque: 0.6 N
⋅m or less]
CAUTION
When adjusting, set at the highest value of the
standard value range.
NOTE: If the total pinion toque cannot be adjusted
to the standard value within the specified return
angle, check the rack support cover components
and replace any parts if necessary.
2. If the total pinion torque or the change in torque is outside the standard value, move the rack support
cover 0
− 30°, and adjust the pinion torque again.
