STEP 71
Place a inclinometer on the top machined surface of
the knuckle and level the assembly to within ± 2
degrees of zero.

counterwise several times before the torque to rotate
measurement is taken. Select a kingpin bearing cap
bolt and place a torque wrench on the bolt. Record
the torque required to rotate the knuckle in the
clockwise direction, and the torque required to rotate
the knuckle in the counterclockwise direction.
Average the two readings. The torque must be in the
range of 34 to 74 Nm (25 to 55 lb. ft.).
Add shims to decrease the torque effort or subtract
shims to increase torque effort as required. Always
shim the upper and lower king pins evenly. Repeat
the procedure until the torque required to rotate the
steering knuckle is within the specification.
When the final adjustments are complete, apply
antiseize lubricant to the king pin bore of the steering
knuckle. Lubricate the king pin through the grease
fitting on the kingpin bearing cap. Repeat the
installation procedure for the opposite steering
knuckle, if removed.

STEP 72
Clean the tie rod end stud and the tapered bore in
the steering knuckle. Install the tie rod seal and
washer. Install the tie rod and tighten the slotted nut
to a torque of 372 Nm (275 lb. ft.). If necessary,
advance the slotted nut until the cotter pin can be
installed. Install the opposite tie rod end, if removed.
STEP 73
Clean the steering cylinder tapered bore and steering
cylinder socket stud. Install and tighten the steering
cylinder slotted nut to a torque of 272 Nm (200 lb. ft.).
If necessary, advance the slotted nut until the cotter
pin can be installed.
