Disassembling the steering gear on cars produced since May 1983 (Escort 3)

            0

Clamp the steering gear in a vice so as not to damage the drive pinion bearing. Remove the clamps of the protective covers and covers from the steering rods. Move the rack to the right or left until the teeth appear. From this side, using a special key, remove the crankcase tip.

Mark the steering rod so that it can be installed in its original position during assembly. Using special tool 13.009 A, unscrew plug 8 (Fig. 5.7), remove spring 7 and stop 6.
