Steering Shaft, Lower Bearing, and Jacket - Assemble - Off Vehicle Column Shift Lean Shaft
- Attach the steering column support assembly (1) to the steering column jacket assembly (3) with 4 TORX® head screws (2).
- Install the steering column shaft assembly (2) into the steering column tilt head assembly (1).
- Install the steering column shaft assembly with the steering column tilt head assembly (1) into the steering column jacket assembly (2).
- Maneuver the tilt knob and push the steering column tilt head assembly (1) up towards the steering column in order to lock the steering wheel lock shoes in place.
- Lubricate the pivot pins (1) with lithium grease.
- Firmly seat each pivot pin (1) into the steering column tilt head assembly.
- Stake the steering column support assembly in 3 locations around each pivot pin.
- Install the adapter and bearing assembly (1) onto the steering column jacket assembly by performing the following steps:
- Install the dual triangle sensor assembly (2) onto the steering column jacket assembly (3).
- Install the sensor retainer (1) onto the steering column jacket assembly (3).
- Install the linear shift and the automatic transmission shift lock control only. Refer to Linear Shift Assembly - Assemble - Off Vehicle .
- Install the tilt spring only. Refer to Tilt Spring - Assemble - Off Vehicle .
- Install the electronic lock module assembly. Refer to Electronic Column Lock Module - Assemble - Off Vehicle .
- Install the steering column into the vehicle. Refer to Steering Column Replacement .
- Enable the inflatable restraint steering wheel module. Refer to Enabling the SIR System in SIR.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Important: Replace the steering column support assembly (1) if the steering column support assembly (1) has been staked 3 times.
