How to service and repair the lower steering shaft on Ford Mustang?

A vehicle should be set in the neutral gear and positioned on a hoist before starting lower steering column shaft service and repair work. Begin by taking out the steering column bolt which joins the steering column shafts and discard it before installing the new bolt with a torque of 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.). The steering column coupling bolt should be removed before discarding it but it needs a torque of 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.) when reinstalling. The two dash boot bearing nuts need removal before installation where torque should be set at 9 Nm (80 inch lbs.). Collapse the upper column shaft until you disconnect the coupling from the lower shaft before uninstalling the lower column shaft. The final step includes executing the opposite procedure to finish the process. Carefully monitor the steering column to avoid its rotation because disconnection of the shaft might damage the clock spring. The necessary repair includes removing and resetting the clock spring after any rotation occurs.

What Precautions Should Be Taken When Servicing the Steering Shaft to Avoid Damaging the Clock Spring on Ford Ranger?

Service the steering column shaft with caution because allowing its rotation when the intermediate shaft is disconnected will damage the Clock Spring. The remedy for Clock Spring rotation requires following the Air Bag Systems guidelines for recentering the component. The service technician must eliminate both steering column shaft bolts from their use because they must be replaced with new ones. You must first detach the bolt between the upper intermediate shaft and lower intermediate shaft midpoint before folding down the lower shaft for bolt disposal. Take the intermediate shaft from inside the vehicle by first removing its bolt that connects to the steering column assembly as you discard the hardware. Complete the project by performing the opposite instructions for removal.

Ford Steering Shaft

If you own Ford and want to keep it in top shape, choosing OEM Steering Shaft is a smart move. They are precisely engineered and follow strict factory standards. They are made in advanced facilities that use cutting edge technology. Each part goes through thorough testing to confirm strength and safety, so you can trust it. FordPartsDeal.com gives you genuine Ford Steering Shaft at some of the affordable online prices without cutting quality. Every OEM Ford part includes the manufacturer's warranty, easy returns, and super-fast delivery. So why wait? Shop now and get your vehicle back to peak condition.

Ford Steering Shaft converts each movement of the steering wheel into solid rapid action. Ford was born in 1903 and was revolutionized by the 1913 moving assembly line which continues to break down cost and time barriers so that the average drivers can afford to purchase machines that will last rather than fantasizing about them. EcoBoost motors that are larger than they appear but drink less fuel, SYNC voice recognition that plays playlists or navigation routes as you go, prove that Ford is taking high tech as utility rather than gimmicks. Co-Pilot360 will come with automatic braking and lane nudges and the all-electric F-150 Lightning demonstrates that Ford does not have to give up the exhaust pipes to give up safer streets and safer commutes. The badge remains inside, creasing new science into each lineup box in order that commuters steal rapidness, intellect and self-possession without abandoning pockets to status symbols. The Steering Shaft installed in that cockpit with versatile crossover and SUV designs connects wheel to rack in the form of a thick steel column, crush sleeves and covered joints that eliminate play, maintain alignment and allow any Ford to have a sure line on crumbled asphalt. The Steering Shaft combats rust using treated bearings and hardy splines which allow turn feedback to be sharp even after seasons of rain, salt, and potholes. The Steering Shaft increases the smoothness of input when you cut through the traffic, and it prevents vibrations when you are crawling on the ruts. Any play is detected in the Steering Shaft with regular checks before it can flatten that direct control.
