Disconnect battery ground cable. On column shift models, disconnect transmission linkage rod from lever on steering column.
Remove dust cover from steering shaft coupler at steering gear. Remove shaft coupler clamp bolt. Mark steering shaft coupler and steering gear shaft for reassembly reference.
Remove steering column floor plate mounting bolts. Remove lower trim panel. Unplug electrical connectors from steering column. Remove steering column bracket mounting nuts. Remove steering column.
Installation
To install, reverse removal procedure. Check for proper operation. Ensure there is at least 1/16-1/8 "(1.6-3.2 mm) clearance between steering shaft and steering gear flanges.
