4) Remove shaft and dimple each setscrew mark using a ¼” drill bit. (As shown below.)
5) Re-install the shafts using red high strength thread locker on the set screw threads. Tighten each setscrew to 25 ft. lbs.
Tighten all lock nuts securely. We recommend that you Inspect setscrews periodically for tightness
Power Steering Pump Installation
Note: The pump included in this kit must be used with the rack. Use of any other pump will void warranty.
1) Install the pump mounting bracket onto the water pump as shown in the picture; next install the pump to the bracket by
installing two bolts through the back of the bracket into the pump as shown in the picture. Only snug the bolts, it will have
to be adjusted once the belt is adjusted.
