hand to make sure that rotation is smooth. If it is ex-
cessively tight or there is a clear problem, detach
and check for foreign objects on the slide surface,
or whether there is any problems in the attachment,
and remove the cause of the problem.

2. MEASUREMENT OF STEERING EFFORT
Step Check Yes No
1CHECK STEERING EFFORT.
1) Stop the vehicle on paved road.
2) Start the engine.
3) Run the engine at idle.
4) Install a spring scale on the steering wheel.
5) Pull the spring scale at a right angle to the
steering wheel, and measure both right and left
steering wheel efforts.
NOTE:When turning the steering more quickly than
necessary from a direction to the other direction
at an engine speed over 2,000 rpm, steering ef-
fort may be heavy. This is caused by flow char-
acteristic of the fluid in the oil pump and is not a
defect.
Is the steering effort less than
29.4 N (3.0 kgf, 6.6 lb)?
Go to step 2.Adjust the back-
lash.
2CHECK STEERING EFFORT.
1) Stop the engine.
2) Pull the spring scale at a right angle to the
steering wheel, and measure both right and left
steering wheel efforts.
Is the steering effort less than
294.2 N (30 kgf, 66.2 lb)?
Go to step 3.Perform the
adjustment.
3CHECK STEERING WHEEL EFFORT.
1) Remove the universal joint.
2) Measure the steering wheel effort.
Is steering effort less than 2.26
N (0.23 kgf, 0.51 lb)?
Go to step 4.Check, adjust and
replace if neces-
sary.
4CHECK STEERING WHEEL EFFORT.
Measure the steering wheel effort.
Is the difference of steering
effort between right and left
less than 20%?
Go to step 5.Check, adjust and
replace if neces-
sary.
5CHECK UNIVERSAL JOINT.
Measure the swing torque of the joint (yoke of
steering column side). INSPECTION, Universal Joint.>
Is the swing torque of the uni-
versal joint less than 7.3 N
(0.74 kgf, 1.64 lb)?
Go to step 6.Replace with a
new part.
6CHECK UNIVERSAL JOINT.
Measure the swing torque of the joint (yoke of
gearbox side). Universal Joint.>
Is the swing torque of the uni-
versal joint less than 3.8 N
(0.39 kgf, 0.86 lb)?
Go to step 7.Replace with a
new part.
7CHECK FRONT WHEEL.
Check the front wheels.
Does the front wheels have
unsteady revolution or rattling,
or does the brake drag?
Inspect, readjust
and replace if nec-
essary.
Go to step 8.
8CHECK TIE–ROD ENDS.
Remove the tie–rod ends.
If the tie-rod ends of suspen-
sion have unsteady revolution
or rattling?
Inspect and
replace if neces-
sary.
Go to step 9.
9BALL JOINT CHECK.
Remove the ball joint.
If the ball joints of suspension
have unsteady revolution or
rattling?
Inspect and
replace if neces-
sary.
Go to step 10.
10 CHECK GEARBOX.
Measure the rotating of gearbox.
GEARBOX, INSPECTION, Steering Gear-
box.>
Is the rotating resistance of
steering gearbox less than
10.5 N (1.1 kgf, 2.4 lb)? Is the
difference between right and
left sides less than 20%?
Go to step 11.Readjust the back-
lash, and if ineffec-
tive, replace the
faulty par ts.
11 CHECK GEARBOX.
Measure the sliding of gearbox.
Gearbox.>
Is the sliding resistance of
steering gearbox less than 400
N (41 kgf, 90 lb)? Is the differ-
ence between the right and left
sliding resistance less than
20%?
Steering effort is
normal.
Readjust the back-
lash, and if ineffec-
tive, replace the
faulty par ts.

C: CAUTION
Please understand and adhere to the following general precautions. They must be strictly followed to avoid
any injury to the person performing the work or persons in the area.
1. OPERATION
•Wear work clothing, including a cap, protective goggles and protective shoes during operation.
•Before disposing of shock absorbers, be sure to bleed the gas out completely. Also, do not expose to
flames or fire.
•Before removal, installation or disassembly, be sure to clarify the failure. Avoid unnecessary removal, in-
stallation, disassembly and replacement.
•Use SUBARU genuine grease etc. or equivalent. Do not mix grease etc. with that of another grade or from
other manufacturers.
•Before securing a part on a vise, place cushioning material such as wood blocks, aluminum plate, or cloth
between the part and the vise.
•Be sure to tighten fasteners including bolts and nuts to the specified torque.
•Place shop jacks or rigid racks at the specified points.
2. OIL
When handling oil, follow the rules below to prevent unexpected accidents.
•Prepare container and waste cloths when performing work which oil could possibly spill. If oil spills, wipe
it off immediately to prevent from penetrating into floor or flowing outside, for environmental protection.
