remove the stock stabilizer bar frame mounts and install the supplied energy system bushings and
mounts.

8. You are now ready to install the rack and pinion. Your rack has come assembled to the mounting

bracket. Put the rack and bracket up in place and using the new supplied hardware, install the bolts
on the driver side and passenger side where the steering box and the idler arm used to be and let the
bracket hang. Install the washers and nuts and torque to 45 ft. lbs.

9. Next, if equipped from the factory remove the power steering pump and mounting brackets. Then,

install the supplied mounting bracket and pump on the motor using the supplied bolts and bushings.
Note: you will need to measure and install a new v belt. It may be necessary to change your pulley
drive orientation such as moving your generator belt off of the crank and run it to the water pump
pulley only. You have to determine your set up per application depending on your vehicles
accessories.
