Disassembly

The first step is to disassemble and remove the stock steering linkage, steering box and column.

1. Disconnect steering shaft from steering box at rag joint by taking out the pinch bolt. Raise vehicle and
support it on stands.

Note: Be sure not to put the stand in a location by the stock round cross member.

2. Remove the cotter pins and nuts from outer tie rod ends and remove tie rods from spindles. Unbolt
the Idler Arm from the frame. Unbolt the power assist assembly from the frame and unbolt the four
bolts on the gear box. Last remove the hoses and then remove the entire steering linkage.
