Advance Adapters has been manufacturing steering conversion parts for installation of the Saginaw steering boxes into Toyota vehicles for more than twelve years. The parts we furnish are of the highest quality available and we utilize only proven design components for our kits. Before you consider the conversion, we recommend that you thoroughly read and understand the complete procedure (located in the Land Cruiser Manual). Do not take short cuts on steering installations. We recommend that these conversions be installed by a qualified technician. All universal joints must be safety wired for double protection. Do not overlook any details. Remember that the control of your vehicle depends on the steering gear

performance. Failure of your steering system can result in severe damage and possible injury.

SPECIAL NOTE: The components packaged in this kit have been assembled and machined for specific type of conversions. Modifications to any of the components will void any possible warranty or return privileges. If you do not fully understand modifications or changes that will be required to complete your conversion, we strongly recommend that you contact our sales department for more information. This instruction sheet is only to be used for the assembly of Advance Adapter components. We recommend that a service manual pertaining to your vehicle be obtained for specific torque values, wiring diagrams and other related equipment. These manuals are normally available at automotive dealerships and parts stores.

NOTE:

This spud shaft couples to the power steering box input shaft. This kit is supplied with a .800" dia. 36 tooth spud shaft. Some power steering boxes were equipped with a .730" dia. 30 tooth input shaft. Applications with this smaller input will require our P/N 716834-30 spud shaft. Our steering box, P/N 716882, does require this smaller diameter spud shaft.

Installation T ips

We recommend Weldless DD and Double Splined universal joints for the best steering system.

Weldless DD universal joint features two set screws for maximum holding power. Position yoke, tighten set screws to mark the shaft. Remove yoke and drill the set point on the shaft. When installing the universal joint, set screws are tightened into the countersink mark, then tighten the jam nut and the shaft will not move. We recommend the use of Loctite.

Spline both ends (3/4"-36) universal joint is the preferred design, as it allows the shaft to be rotated in small increments during installation to properly align or phase the steering system. Once the steering is set, tighten set screws to mark the shaft. Remove yoke and drill the set point on the shaft. When installing the universal joint, set screws are tightened into the countersink mark, then tighten the jam nut and the shaft will not move. We recommend the use of Loctite.

A FEW NOTES

**Phasing-Keep the forks of the yokes closest to each other in line and parallel to the centerline of the shaft to avoid binding. **Always use the minimum angle when designing your system - ideally 10 degrees or less, NEVER MORE THAN 35 DEGREES. **NEVER WELD a universal joint. Welding reduces the strength of the metal and can melt the needle bearing seal. **BUFFING creates a very attractive finish in a matter of minutes. It is very important not to buff the caps because over heating

may damage the bearing seals.
