STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY
1. Insert bearing seat (10) into both ends of steering tube (14). Place a block of wood on bearing seat and
tap lightly on block until bearing seat (10) is fully seated in steering tube (14)
.
2. Press the bearing (9) all the way into the bearing seat (10) using a steering column bearing press tool
(CC P/N 1014264) or a metal tube approximately six inches (15.2 cm) long with a maximum outer diam-
eter of 1-3/16-inches (3.3 cm) and a minimum inside diameter of 7/8-inch (2.2 cm). Be sure the bearing
is installed in the bearing seat as shown
so the wedge (8) will ride against the
inner race of the bearing.
3. Install the wedge (8), spring (7), washer (6) and snap ring (5) onto the bottom end of the steering shaft
4. Insert the shaft (11) from the bottom of the steering tube (13)
.
5. Turn the assembly over and place the shaft (11) on a bench. Install the wedge (8) and retaining ring (12)
onto the top of the shaft. Be sure the prongs on the retaining ring face up and away from the wedge. Use
a steering column retaining ring tool (CC P/N 1014259) to seat the retaining ring to the proper depth.
Support end of tube while pressing. If you do not have the recommended tool, use the same tube as was
used in step 2 to press the retaining ring onto the top of the shaft. The retaining ring should be pressed
onto the shaft until 2 to 2-1/8 inches (5.1-5.4 cm) of the shaft extends from the top of the bearing seat in
the steering tube
