REPLACE THE STEERING
SHAFT
6. If equipped with a horn switch in the steering wheel,
remove the switch, disconnect the wires from the
switch and cut the terminals off of the wires.
7. Remove the steering wheel.
NOTE: Refer to
Replace the Steering Wheel
section
for information regarding removing the
steering wheel.
8. Remove the upper steering shaft bushing or
bearing from the steering column.
9. Remove the steering gear access cover from the
steering column (if equipped).
10. Remove and discard the pinch bolt and nut from
the steering shaft coupler.
Always use a lifting strap, hoist, and jack
stands, of adequate capacity to lift and
support the vehicle. Failure to use lifting
and support devices of rated load capacity
may result in severe bodily injury.
1. Make sure the key-switch is in the “OFF”
position, then remove the key.
2. Place the forward-reverse switch in the
center “OFF” position.
3. Confirm the electric park brake is set.
4. Place blocks under the front wheels to
prevent vehicle movement.
5. Disconnect the main positive and
negative cables at the batteries.
NOTE Most vehicle configurations will now allow the
steering shaft to slide off of the steering gear
input shaft and then back down out of the
steering column. If there is not enough
clearance for this procedure then the steering
gear must be removed. Refer to
Replace the
Steering Gear
for information regarding
removing the steering gear.
11. Remove the steering shaft from the vehicle.
12. Lightly grease the input shaft splines, steering
wheel splines and the upper steering shaft bushing.
Make sure that the pinch bolt is not aligned
with the flat on the steering shaft. Aligning
the bolt with the flat could result in failure
of the steering and loss of control of the
vehicle. This could lead to property damage
and/or severe bodily injury.
Do not use the original pinch bolt and nut.
Failure to replace the pinch bolt and nut
may result in failure of the steering causing
loss of control of the vehicle. This could
lead to property damage and/or severe
bodily injury.
13. Install the steering shaft in reverse order using a
new pinch bolt. Orientate the shaft so that the pinch
bolt is opposite the flat in the steering gear shaft.
14. Tighten the pinch bolt to 24-26 ft-lbs.
15. Reconnect the main positive and negative cables
at the batteries.
16. Remove the blocks from behind the wheels.
17. Test drive the vehicle.
