What size kitty is required for this adjustment?
I love the shop help you keep around. It makes a word of a difference to have a meowing good apprentice lol
if anyone cant find the tool he used for adjustment just go to hardware store and get a nut that fit inside then use channel locks on half the exposed nut
Clever idea thanks
Glad I don't need to rent a cat for this job... Excellent video! Many thanks! I believe this is causing a loud CLUMP noise when I turn my wheels to far right... It looks like two metal pieces jumping or clashing... I might be a pinion tooth sliding and jumping over the rack teeth... It would sound EXACTLY like what I am having on my Jeep Grand Cherokee 2006. Thanks a lot!
good thing you got yourself an inspector🐈⬛
Honestly good video got a cat that likes to help to. Video makes sense
This actually makes a difference ... Thanks
straight to the point! thanks
thank you sir its help a lot God bless po.
Thanks Alot
White cat needs gloves or a different job. Good to count the turns on the nut when removing so to know where point "a" was. Thanks for the vid.
Cat is very important for this procedure
I dont know man, but most of the the mechanic asked me to change the rack, it is like they dont even know or at least try to adjust this
Yeah, try to adjust first before changing the rack.
That means mechanics on your city trained from vulcanizing shops 😂 you saw that piece of metal he pulled out shaped like a crescent shape metal. That half moon thing thins out overtime thus there would be an allowance. Grease thins out too. This is a maintenance adjustment that evry mechanic should know.. its like tightening the serpentine belt on the engine when it thins out and starts squeeking.. you dont replace the belt right away just adjust the tension in the belt. Duh
To make sure job is well done. Cats are absolully necessary..😅
This bolt fixed click in the low speed ?I replace tie end but not noise stay
Could be a cv joint on you're axle. Does it click during tight low speed cornering
Boss anu twag jn mag order po Sana Ako pang hi ace cumuter
I'm trying to pull out that crescent piece that pushes against the rack and it won't budge. Any suggestions?
I used alligator pliers to remove it 1:01.
What is the tool you are using to remove the adjustment screw?
The tool is a vise grip.
Vice grip tool name
What is the tool you are using to tighten the rack and pinion? Thanks
The tool is a tubular spanner or spark plug socket wrench. The sets can be seen at this time 1:26.
Tub socket set
I had a serious bad klunk in a new rebuilt R&P. with 500 miles on it. The installer gave up on this noise. Sounded like the wheel was gonna break off on a turn.
So I got the front wheels off the ground, turned that nut in about a 2/3 turn and backed off. Most of that klunking was gone now and the steering was nice and tight. But the damage was done from all the klunking done by loose gears skipping from a loose setting. And so had to replace the R&P again. This time I got a Toyota factory rebuilt one. And this time I knew what to do if there was anymore Klunks. Sure enough even with a Toyota factory rebuild R&P there was that klunk. The same shop gave up again. I was like whatever. I got home...jacked up the Truck right away, before the R&P gears got damaged again. Sure enough the setting was way too loose. I turned that nut in 2/3 turn, backed off slightly and waalaaa !!
Nice' n Tight... Rack and Pinion and No...more... gear klunks !!
Funny and crazy thing was how the shop would laugh about TH-camr fix it videos that people watch !!! Well this Vid. done what bench shops and shops wouldn't do...set them gears firm and snug. Loose settings is not good at all. They just replace the racks.
Thanks again.
Manual steering rack is the same for all ef models?
I'm not sure.
What kind of grease do you use and what is the tool to remove the screw?
I used grease 3 and the tool is spark plug wrench set.
What kind of grease should we need?
I used grease 3.
What type of grease did you use ? Thanks
I used grease 3.
Us just regular lubricant or special one?
I used grease 3.
My steering is tight. Should I loosen the adjustment a bit?
You can try it and compare the differences.
So any update sir?did you fix it?
Ilang mm po yung hex po? Salamat
Set po kasi yung tools, di malinaw dun sa label kung anong size. 14mm nung sinukat ko gamit ang digital caliper.
Pwede po ba 'to sa hydraulic power steering? Salamat po in advance
Pwede po sir.
The cat. Came to inspect
Mechanic cat
cat inspector : )
😹
What car?
Can be applied to any vehicle.
sir ung sakin tumatabingi po sa ang manibela, pinatuwid qna po pero bumabalik parin tabingi. yan po ba ung inaadjust?
Hindi po yan ang inaadjust. Baka po hindi naka-align ang tire nyo kaya tumatabingi ang manebela. Tie rod po ang inaadjust pag ganun.
Same boss. Lumilipat left-to-right right-to-left. Tuwid naman takbo ng auto ko.
May nakita na po kayo solution boss? Napagawa nyo na po?
Gumagalaw ung rack boss pag nilalaro mo ung manibela.Bushing daw boss ng rack ang papalalitan
@@renatoburaga4748 Oo, pweding sira ang bushing nyan.
Do not do this. If your rack has a dead zone, and you increase preload, you increase the chance of binding up the rack once outside of your “dead zone”
You only do this on new racks, that come out of adjustment.
You only do this if you have a “constant” tightness or looseness from lock to lock that isn’t variable.
Basically, you should never do this. That’s not there for you to take up the slack from wearing your rack down. Thats there because of how a rack and pinion works.
TH-cam is the perfect example of “Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should”
Is there any reason not to set it back to manufacturer spec on older worn racks?
Mine has the same play all throughout the rack, at all points. Would it be okay to give tightening it a go?
Something to note, it only occurs with weight on the wheels. When in the air, there is no play whatsoever.
