52. Position the new O-ring (A) and new piston seal

ring (B) on the special tool, then slide them down
toward the big end of the tool.

Note these items during reassembly:

• Do not over expand the resin seal rings. Install

the resin seal rings with care so as not to damage
them. After installation, make sure you contract
the seal ring using the special tool (sizing tool).

• Replace piston’s O-ring and seal ring as a set.

53. Pull the O-ring off into the piston groove, then pull

the piston seal ring off into the piston groove on
top of the O-ring.

54. Coat the piston seal ring (A) and the inside of the

special tool with power steering fluid, then
carefully slide the tool onto the rack and over the
piston seal ring.

55. Move the special tool back and forth several times

to make the piston seal ring fits snugly in the piston.

56. Set the new bushing (A) on the special tool, and

insert the special tools into the cylinder housing (B).

57. Set the cylinder in a press, and install the bushing

into the bottom of the cylinder by pressing on the
tool with a press. Do not push on the tool with
excessive force as it may damage the new bushing.
