| Power steering racks have a neutral position. Where no fluid
pressure is applied in either direction, to relieve pressure related steering problems.
This position must be achieved with the front wheels pointing straight ahead.
It is essential that the steering rack be placed in the neutral position before
performing a wheel alignment. |
| Align mark on plastic cover (green arrow) with casting mark on the rear of
the rack housing (blue arrow). Photo is taken from below and behind rack. |

CAUTION: Adjusting the steering wheel position
on the column to achieve a level wheel while travelling straight, can leave the steering
rack out of the neutral position. This can lead to strange handling and steering problems,
presenting possible dangerous situations.
