2.1 Inspect tie rods, steering arms, and the
drag link for signs of looseness (i.e., shiny
spots or rust tracks). See
Fig. 23.11 .
2.2 Check the steering gear mounting bolts
and pitman arm nut, if equipped, for signs
of looseness.
2.3
Check the drag link nuts for missing cotter
pins.
2.4
Inspect the steering intermediate shaft and
end yokes for excessive looseness or
other damage.
NOTICE
Do not drive with a drive belt that is visibly worn
or damaged. If it fails, the lack of coolant flow
could rapidly cause damage to engine compo-
nents.
3. Inspect the serpentine drive belts for signs of
glazing, frayed edges, breaks, cracks, or oil con-
tamination.
4. Check the power steering reservoir fluid level.
The power steering fluid level should be between
the MIN COLD mark and the middle mark just
above it. If needed, fill the reservoir with auto-
matic transmission fluid that meets Dexron III or
TES-389 specifications.
5.
Inspect visible engine wiring for damage or
looseness. Check for loose wiring, chafed insula-
tion, and damaged or loose hold-down clamps.

Brake Component Inspection
Walk around the vehicle and inspect brake system
components for visible damage.
1.
Inspect all visible brake system components for
missing fasteners or signs of looseness, such as
rust tracks.
NOTICE
If the external breather tube or breather cap is
missing or incorrectly installed, road dirt and de-
bris can adversely affect the operation of the
brake chamber. Once inside of the chamber, dirt
and debris can cause the internal parts of the
chamber to deteriorate faster.
