(c) Flip the ball joint back and forth 5 times.
(d) Using a torque wrench and the nut, turn the stud bolt continuously at a rate of 2 to 4 seconds per turn, and check the turning torque on the 5th turn.
Standard Turning Torque:
0.49 to 3.43 N*m (5 to 34 kgf*cm, 5 to 30 in.*lbf)
If the turning torque is not within the specified range, replace the tie rod assembly LH with a new one.

(a) Install SST to the pinion shaft and turn it left and right 5 times or more. SST: 09616-00020 |
|
(b) Using a torque wrench and SST, turn the pinion shaft continuously at a rate of 4 to 6 seconds per turn to inspect the total preload of the steering gear assembly.
Standard Preload:
1.5 to 2.2 N*m (16 to 22 kgf*cm, 14 to 19 in.*lbf)
NOTICE:
Inspect the total preload around the steering rack center position.
If the total preload is not within the specified range, replace the steering gear assembly with a new one.
