2001 Toyota Tacoma Rack And Pinion Parts Q&A
Q: How to disassemble the Rack And Pinion on 2001 Toyota Tacoma?
A: The rack and pinion's disassembly starts with removing the 2 turn pressure tubes through Special Service Tool (SST) 09023-38200 then proceeding to extract the 2 union seats from both rack housing and control valve housing. The Rack And Pinion assembly requires placement in a vise through the use of SST 09612-00012 and two bolts. Rank the tie rod ends and rack ends prior to loosening their lock nuts and tie rod ends. Begin by taking away both the clips together with the clamps and rack boots from each side but keep the boots free from damage. The technician should utilize SST 09922-10010 to remove rack ends after maintaining control of the rack and pinion with a spanner while using a screwdriver and hammer to unstake claw washers according to the correct direction. The service procedure starts with the removal of the rack guide spring cap lock nut followed by removal of the rack guide spring cap. Next remove rack guide spring and rack guide and rack guide seat. Mark the original locations of parts before you take out the dust cover and the control valve housing with its control valve assembly. To remove the control valve assembly tap the bearing guide nut with SST 09631-20060 then strike it with a plastic hammer while being cautious of damaging the oil seal lip. Use SST 09922-10010 together with its O-ring to disassemble the cylinder end stopper. A 24 mm socket wrench with an extension bar then pushes out the rack and oil seal. During inspection, check for rack and pinion runout and wear then replace the needed oil seal and bearing using SST 09950-60010 (09951-00260) and 09950-70010 (09951-07150). Install the oil seal in its proper direction. Evaluate the needle roller bearing as well as bushing for damage before performing replacements when needed. Likewise, inspect and change teflon rings and O-rings for wear if necessary. The reassembly process requires application of power steering fluid or molybdenum disulfide lithium base grease onto specified parts before inserting the oil seal and spacer with SST 09951-60010 (09951-00330, 09951-00490) to install the rack and pinion using SST 09631-00350. First install the cylinder end stopper while using SST 09922-10010 to tighten it to 59 Nm then conduct an air tightness test by using SST 09631-12071. The control valve assembly should be installed after applying power steering fluid on the teflon rings and O-ring before torquing the bearing guide nut to 25 Nm with SST 09631-20060. Secure the control valve housing with 2 bolts that should be torqued to 18 Nm while aligning the matchmarks. Install the dust cover followed by proper adjustment of total rack preload then secure the rack ends with proper torque values while ensuring everything is securely in place.
