    3. B0024TRC01
      *A for LH Side
      *B for RH Side
      *a Hold
      *b Turn
      *c Torque Wrench Fulcrum Length

      Using SST, install the steering rack end sub-assembly (LH side) to the steering rack.

      SST
      09922-10010
      Torque:
      Specified tightening torque:
      103 N*m  { 1050 kgf*cm, 76 ft.*lbf }

      Note

      Rotate SST in the direction shown in the illustration.

      Tech Tips


      • Calculate the torque wrench reading when changing the fulcrum length of the torque wrench.
