Suzuki Grand Vitara JB627. Manual - part 264

6C-17 Power Assisted Steering System: 

6) Remove tie-rod (1) from steering gear case (2).

Installation

1) Clean threads of both tie-rod and steering gear case 

(2).

2) Apply thread lock cement to thread of tie-rod ball nut 

(1) and then tighten it to specified torque.

“B”:  Thread lock cement 99000–32100 (Thread 
Lock Cement 1305)

Tightening torque
Tie-rod ball nut (a):  90 N·m (9.0 kgf-m, 65.0 lb-ft)

3) Apply grease to boot inside “A” indicated in the 

figure.

4) Position boot properly in grooves of gear case and 

tie-rod. Check to ensure that boot is free from twist 
and dent.

5) Clamp boot with clip and wire. Wire should be new 

and should go around the boot twice.
Pull its both ends together by screwdriver or such 
and make sure that the wire won’t be crossed. Then 
twist the ends several times, the twisted ends should 
be bent in the circumferential direction.

6) Install tie-rod end lock nut and tie-rod end to tie-rod. 

Position lock nut to marking (1) made in removal.

NOTE
When tie-rod was replaced, measure length 
“a” on removed tie-rod and use it on new 
replacement tie-rod so as to position lock nut 
properly.

 

7) Install steering gear case. Refer to “P/S Gear Case 

Assembly Removal and Installation”.

P/S Pump Removal and Installation

S6JB0B6306017

Removal

NOTE
Be sure to clean each joint of suction and 
discharge sides thoroughly before removal.

 

1) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
2) Take out P/S fluid in reservoir with syringe or such.
3) Disconnect high pressure pipe and suction hose 

from power steering pump.

NOTE
As fluid flows out of disconnected joints, put 
a receptacle under joints or a plug to pipe.

 

4) Disconnect pressure switch lead wire at switch 

terminal.

5) Remove P/S drive belt referring to “P/S Pump and A/

C Compressor (If Equipped) Drive Belt Removal and 
Installation”.

6) Remove P/S pump mounting bolts (1) and then 

remove P/S pump.

7) Remove P/S pump (2).

NOTE
Plug each port of removed pump to prevent 
dust or any other foreign matter from 
entering.

 

Installation
Reverse removal procedure, and then nothing the 
following instructions.

NOTE

• Adjust P/S pump drive belt referring to “P/

S Pump and A/C Compressor (If Equipped) 
Drive Belt Inspection and Adjustment”.

• Fill specified power steering fluid after 

installation and bleed air without failure 
referring to “P/S System Air Bleeding 
Procedure”.
