7. From under the vehicle, install the new rack and pinion assembly between the frame rails. The

passenger side uses the supplied 3/8 hardware and bolts in the place where the idler arm used to be.

8. The driver side uses the supplied 7/16 hardware and uses 2 of the 3 mounting holes where the

gearbox used to be. Once the rack is hanging in the car leave the hardware loose. Making sure the
rack is in the center of the car and the pinion is also centered you can now install your steering shaft
support bracket.

9. Install the heim joint by threading it into the hole and start with the joint about ½ way through the

threads for adjustment. Slide the support bracket over the driver side mounting bolts and leave loose.

10. Install the upper u-joint onto the column shaft and paying attention to the flat surface of the shaft,

place u-joint set screw over flat. Locktite the set screw and tighten to 25 ft lbs. Then tighten jamb nut.
