Removal
Remove the tie rod end.
Loosen the clamps at both ends of the protective cover.
Remove the protective covers.
Note: If the protective cover has been damaged for a long time, it should be borne in mind that there may be dirt in its cavity. Together with the lubricant, it can act as an abrasive and destroy the steering mechanism. As a result, it may be necessary to repair the mechanism.
Installation
Apply a thin layer of grease to the steering rod "C".
Lightly lubricate the protective covers "B" from the inside at the points of contact "E" with the rods and put them on through the steering rod "C".
Secure the boot to the steering gear housing with clamp "D".
Install the tie rod end joint.
Secure the boot to the steering rod with a wire clamp. The ends of the clamp should face outward to avoid damaging the boot. Do not twist the boot.
Lower the car.
Check the wheel alignment and adjust if necessary.
