12. Your rack has been shipped with the pressure and return line ports connected to it. You will
need to install the pressure and return line to the ports and install the rack with them connected.
The lower larger port on the rack is the pressure port and the higher smaller port is the return. As
you are going up into place with the bracket you will need to position the lines around the motor
mounts and header. This may take some time to find the angle you need but position the lines
where you need so that clearance is provided. Your rack and pinion is also centered before
shipping and is marked make sure not to move it off center or loosen the mounting blocks on the
gear itself.
13. Once the rack is in place leave the bolts loose and install the shaft and joint from the rack and
pinion to the steering column. Slide the shaft onto the u-joint on the column and snug the pinch
bolt. Run the shaft down to the pinion, with the pinion joint on the shaft, raise the rack into place
to spline the lower joint to the pinion. NOTE: It is important that you phase the u-joint 90 degrees
out or opposite of each other before you install and tighten. Also make sure that you center your
steering wheel before sliding the u-joints together. Torque the u-joint bolts to 40ft. lbs.
Note: MAKE SURE YOUR RACK AND PINION IS CENTERED AND YOUR STEERING WHEEL
IS RESONABLY STRAIGHT.
