  1. For 4×2 vehicles, turn the new EPS gear steering shaft to the full right turn position.

 

  1. Position the new EPS gear to the front crossmember.

 

  1. Install the two EPS gear mounting bolts and tighten them to 180 N·m + 90° turn (133 ft. lbs. + 90° turn) (Figure 6).

 

  1. Connect the two electrical connectors at EPS gear (Figure 7).

 

  1. For 4×2 vehicles, center the steering gear by turning the EPS gear steering shaft from lock-to-lock, counting the turns. Then turn the steering shaft half the turns that are required to go lock-to-lock.

 

  1. Slide the intermediate shaft onto the EPS gear shaft and install a NEW intermediate shaft pinch bolt. Tighten the pinch bolt to 55 N·m (41 ft. lbs.) (Figure 6).

 

  1. Install the new tie rod ends to the new EPS gear if not already installed.

 

  1. Clean and dry the tie rod end studs and the tapers in the steering knuckle arms. Then install the tie rod ends into the steering knuckles.

  1. Install and tightening the M8 negative battery cable eyelet nut to 16 N·m (12 ft. lbs.) (Figure 4).

 

NOTE: The M8 negative battery cable eyelet nut has a higher torque than the M6 battery cable clamp with IBS nut and can break the IBS free if the M6 nut is tightened first.

 

NOTE: Avoid rotating the IBS during tightening of the M8 nut in order to avoid contact between the wire harness connector receptacle and the battery.

 

  1. Tighten the M6 battery cable clamp with IBS nut to 6 N·m (53 in. lbs.) (Figure 4).

 

  1. Install a battery charger. Verify that the charging rate provides 13.0 to 13.5 volts. Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge.
