NEEDLE ROLLER BEARING
(1) Check to ensure that when the shaft and gear are combined
and made to rotate, they rotate smoothly without looseness
and noise.
(2) Check to ensure that the cage is not deformed.

BLEEDING
1. Lift up the vehicle.
2. Connect the MUT-II to the 16-pin diagnosis connector.
Caution
Before connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II,
always turn off the ignition switch.
3. Turn on the ignition switch.
4. Operate the MUT-II (Item No.10) to activate the hydraulic
unit forcibly.
NOTE
(1) The forced activation (air bleeding mode) will be
automatically canceled after 5 minutes operation. It
can also be canceled forcibly by operating the clear
key on the MUT-II.
(2) While this function is being disabled by the fail-safe
function, the forced activation of the hydraulic unit
can not be executed.
5. Remove the cap of the left bleeder screw on the torque
transfer differential and connect a vinyl hose.
6. Gradually turn the steering wheel clockwise from the
straight-ahead position. At this time, loosen the left bleeder
screw and check that fluid is discharged with air.
7. After air has been completely discharged, tighten the
bleeder screw.
Caution
While the system is being bled of air, add fluid as
necessary to ensure that it is left in the oil reservoir
during the entire procedure.
8. Repeat steps (6) and (7) two to three times until no air
bubbles are recognized in the fluid that comes out. Then,
tighten the bleeder screw to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 9 Nm
9. Perform steps (5) through (8) for the right bleeder screw.
Note, however, that the steering wheel should be turned
counterclockwise.
10. After the system has been completely bled of air, check
for the fluid level. (Refer to P.27-33.)
Caution
If the system is not completely bled of air, the hydraulic
unit could generate noise, degrading pump durability.
AYC OPERATION CHECK
1. Lift up the vehicle.
2. Connect the MUT-II to the 16-pin diagnosis connector.
Caution
Before connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II, always
turn off the ignition switch.
3. Start the engine.
4. Operate the MUT-II with the transmission in 2nd or a
higher gear and check to ensure that the vehicle speed
is higher than 10 km/h using the Data List (Item 10).

4. Match the oil seal centre with rack to prevent retainer
spring from slipping and slowly insert rack from power
cylinder side.
EOIL SEAL / RACK BUSHING INSTALLATION

2. Apply the specified fluid to the oil seal inner surface and
the O-ring.
Specified fluid:
Automatic transmission fluid
DEXRON or DEXRON II
3. Wrap the rack end with plastic tape, and push the rack
bushing onto the rack.
FCIRCLIP INSTALLATION
Insert the circlip to the rack stopper hole through the cylinder
hole. Turn the rack stopper clockwise and insert the circlip
firmly.
Caution

bearing into the valve housing.
Specified fluid:
Automatic transmission fluid
DEXRON or DEXRON II
HSEAL RING INSTALLATION
1. Kneed the seal ring to soften it.
2. Apply the specified fluid to the seal ring, and install to
the rack groove.
Specified fluid:
Automatic transmission fluid
DEXRON or DEXRON II
3. Insert the tapered side of the special tool from the pinion
gear side, and compress the seal ring.
IOIL SEAL INSTALLATION
Use the special tool to press the oil seal into the valve housing.
The upper surface of the oil seal should project outwards
approx. 1 mm from the housing edge surface.
Caution
If the oil seal is flush with or lower than the housing
edge, it will cause oil leaks and require reassembly.
JEND PLUG INSTALLATION
1. Apply the specified sealant to the threaded part of the
end plug.
Specified sealant:
3M ATD Part No.8661 or equivalent
2. Secure the threaded portion of the end plug at two places
by using a punch.
KTOTAL PINION TORQUE ADJUSTMENT
1. Position the rack at its centre. Tighten the rack support
cover to 15 Nm.
2. In neutral position, rotate the pinion shaft clockwise one
turn/4 – 6 seconds with the special tool. Return the rack
support cover 30 – 60 and adjust torque to the standard
value.
