Note: It may be necessary to slide out diver side bolts & lower rack assembly to enable clearance of u-
joint to shaft.
9. Tighten passenger side bolts and driver side bolts to 40 lbs.
10. Check clearance between header tube & u-joints of shafts.
Note: It may be necessary to adjust heim joint in or out of bracket (up or down) to clear. To do so,
perform steps 2-4 again until adjustment is made.
11. Also, make sure you phase your u-joints. The lower u-joints at the pinion & at the heim must work
opposite of each other. Set them up so that they are 90 degrees apart as they turn.
12. If you rotate your steering wheel and it bumps or binds your phasing is wrong. Continue to adjust by
rotating u-joints.
13. After installation make sure mounting bracket bolts to frame are torqued to 40 lbs.
14. Make sure u-joint bolts are installed & torqued to 25lbs.
15. Tighten jam nuts on u-joints & heim joint.
