WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Lincoln Town Car. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Start the engine and center the steering wheel. Turn the engine off, and hold the steering wheel in the "straight forward" position by attaching a rigid link from the steering wheel to the brake pedal. Remove the clamps from the bellows boot. See Fig 1 .
- Clean and lubricate the nuts and the tie-rod end threads. Loosen the nuts. Do not allow the bellows boot to twist when the tie-rod is rotated. Rotate the tie-rods to obtain the correct toe setting. See WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS .
- Start the engine and recenter the steering wheel. Recheck the toe settings and adjust if necessary. Tighten the nuts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Install the clamps.
