In order to expose the rack and pinion, turn the front wheel lug nuts, jack up the front of the vehicle and put it on jackstands; the steering wheel should be pointed straight ahead. You should employ a seat belt or a rope to fasten the wheel and apply the parking brake, and also remove the wheels and the covers located in the wheel arches. Subsequently, disengage the tie-rod ends from the steering knuckle arms. Locate a drain pan beneath the rack and pinion and then remove the connecting lines of the fluid being CAUTION; plug the ends. Take off the tubing support bracket, and detach the rack and pinion wiring harness. Identify the position of the steering shaft in relation to the rack and pinion, remove the pinch bolt from the lower end of the steering shaft and then pull out the shaft from the casing ensuring that the steering wheel is in straight ahead position. Loosen the nuts of the stabilizer bar followed by loosening of rack and pinion mounting which help in towing the rack and pinion from the left wheel well. Regarding installation, it is recommended that the rack and pinion must be already in the middle before proceeding to reversing all the mentioned procedures. The bolts should then be fitted and securely tightened to the torque standardized, the tie-rod ends fitting onto the steering knuckle arms and the steering column pinch bolt fitted, torqued to the right value. Bolt the power steering pressure and return hoses to the rack and pinion, then fill the power steering pump reservoir with the recommended fluid. Last, but not the least, secure the wheels and the lug nuts in their proper place, lower the car and again and tighten the lug nuts to advised torque, bleed the steering system and finally, it is recommended that the wheel alignment should be done by either the dealer service department or a reputed alignment shop should be hired for this job.
