1. INSPECT POWER STEERING RACK

(a) Using a dial indicator, check the power steering rack for runout and for teeth wear and damage.
Maximum runout: 0.3 mm (0.012 in.) If necessary, replace the rack & pinion power steering gear assembly.
(b) Check the back surface for wear and damage.
If necessary, replace the rack & pinion power steering gear assembly.
2. INSPECT TIE ROD ASSEMBLY LH

(a) Secure the tie rod assembly in a vise.
(b) Install the nut to the stud bolt.
(c) Flip the ball joint stud back and forth 5 times.
(d) Using a torque wrench, turn the nut continuously at a rate of 3 to 5 seconds per turn and take the torque reading on the 5th turn.
Torque: Turning torque 0.83 to 3.43 N*m (8.5 to 35.0 kgf*cm, 7.3 to 30.4 in.*lbf)
