Steering Column

Inspection

NOTE:
•   Check the tilt mechanism, steering joint bearings and steering shaft for proper movement and damage. Replace as an assembly if damaged or faulty.
•   The tilt steering column is shown; the conventional steering column is similar except for the tilt mechanism.



Preload: 70-90 N (7-9 kg, 15-20 Ibs)

If the force measured is not within the specification, loosen the lock bolt, then the stopper, until the correct force can be obtained.
