CAUTION: Slowly remove the hydraulic lines from the
cylinder. Test for pressure in the lines before removal.
1. Place an oil pan directly under the steering
cylinder. This will catch the hydraulic fluid that will
be drained from the lines and the cylinder.
2. Remove both hydraulic line connectors from the
fittings on the cylinder using an 11/16 and a 5/8
open end wrench. See figure 1.
3. Lower the hydraulic lines down into the oil pan
and allow to drain.
4. Remove the front ball joint NUT from the steering
arm using a 17mm and 3/4" open end wrench.
See figure 2.
NOTE: Remove the ball joint NUT only!!!

bracket using a 17mm wrench and a 3/4" open
end wrench.
10. Slowly push the cylinder rod into the cylinder until
it is fully closed.
NOTE: At this point, the cylinder and both ball
joints are still in the original positions.
11. Record the exact positions of all the ball joints,
hex nuts and fittings on the cylinder. See figure 4.
12. Measure the distance from the inner edge of the
ball joint hex nut to the cylinder end. Repeat this
step for the opposite end. Write both distances
down. See figure 4.
NOTE: The proper measurements are needed to
keep the steering adjusted properly during
reassembly. These measurements should be
approximately 2.75" on the rod end, and 7/16" on
the mounting bracket end. See figure 4.
