Field reports indicate that some confusion exists as to the proper method for removing and installing the relay rod on Corvette models with RPO N-40 Power Steering. The following procedure is being presented to clarify the operation and provide a step-by-step method specifically for Corvettes with Power Steering. This procedure will also service past models.
REMOVAL
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: All steering linkage attachments are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital components and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with parts of the same part numbers or with equivalent parts if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use replacement parts of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during assembly to assure proper retention of these parts.
This procedure will be reflected in a future revision on to the 1972 Passenger Flat Rate Schedule.
