A: INSPECTION
1. STEERING WHEEL
1) Set the steering wheel in a straight-ahead position, and check the wheel spokes to make sure they are cor-
rectly set in their specified positions.
2) Lightly turn the steering wheel to the left and right to determine the point where front wheels start to move.
Measure the distance of the movement of steering wheel (periphery).
Steering wheel free play:
0 — 30 mm (0 — 1.8 in)
Move the steering wheel vertically toward the shaft to check if there is play in the direction.
Play limit:
0.5 mm (0.020 in)
3) Drive the vehicle and check the following items.
(1) Steering force:
The effort required for steering should be smooth and even at all points, and should not vary.
(2) Pulled to one side:
Steering wheel should not be pulled to one side while driving on a level surface.
(3) Wheel runout:
Steering wheel should not show any sign of runout.
(4) Return status:
Steering wheel should return to its original position after it has been turned and then released.
2. STEERING SHAFT JOINT
If steering wheel play is excessive, disconnect the universal joint of steering shaft and then check the play
where the joints cross and yawing torque. Also, check the seal for damage or serrations for wear. If the joint
is loose, retighten the mounting bolts to the specified torque.
Tightening torque:
35 N·m (3.6 kgf-m, 25.8 ft-lb)

Tightening torque:
60 N·m (6.1 kgf-m, 44.3 ft-lb)
2) Check the boot for damage, cracks or deterioration.
3) With the vehicle stopped on a level surface, quickly turn the steering wheel to the left and right.
While steering wheel is being rotated, check the gear backlash. If any noise is noticed, adjust the gear back-
lash.
