Loosen but do not remove the wheel lug nuts, then raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the front wheels, detach the engine under cover, and take out the intermediate shaft lower clamp bolt. Disconnect the tie-rod ends from the steering knuckle arms, and use a flare nut wrench to disconnect the power steering pressure and return lines from the Rack And Pinion, placing a container underneath to catch any spilled fluid while plugging the lines to prevent excessive fluid loss and contamination. Remove the bolts from the Rack And Pinion mounting brackets and withdraw the assembly from beneath the vehicle, taking care not to damage the rack boots. To install the assembly, reverse the removal procedure, ensuring to tighten the mounting bolts, tie-rod end nuts, and intermediate shaft clamp bolts to the specified torque values. Install the front wheels and tighten the wheel lug nuts finger tight, then fill the reservoir with the recommended fluid and bleed the steering system. Lower the vehicle and tighten the wheel lug nuts to the specified torque, and it is advisable to have the front wheels aligned by a dealer service department or alignment shop after reassembly.
