adjusting screw and torque nut (38) to 95-109 N
m
(70-80 ft.lbs.), after tightening nut torque to rotate
worm shaft must rise .45-.79 Nm (4-7 in.lbs.) above
torque checked previously (Fig. 35).
30.
Apply a generous amount of clean wheel bearing
grease to bearing race inside side cover (58) to retain
