STEERING AND BRAKES MAINTENANCE
Steering System
Excessive play in the steering system is checked by turning the steering wheel
while the engine is stopped. With the front wheels pointing straight ahead,
turn the steering wheel until the front wheel starts moving. Then, turn the
steering wheel the other way until the front wheel moves. Play should not be
more than 25 mm (1 inch) at the rim of the steering wheel. If the steering play
is excessive, check the steering linkage for looseness, wear, etc. Make
necessary repairs before driving the vehicle.
