2004 Chevrolet Impala Steering Column Seal Parts and Q&A

• Q: How to replace the Steering Column Seal on the intermediate shaft on 2004 Chevrolet Impala?

  A: Console functions begin with turning off engine ignition as well as removing the key responsible for locking the Steering Column. Proceed by taking the intermediate shaft seal off from the Steering Column and disconnecting the intermediate shaft from the column. Drive the intermediate shaft downward to achieve collapsion before the removal of intermediate shaft seal bolts occurs. It might become necessary to strip off the lower part of the intermediate shaft seal that exists within the steering gear. Begin by installing the intermediate shaft lower seal onto the steering gear then moving it to the intermediate shaft before applying the intermediate shaft upper seal above the lower seal present on the instrument panel. Install the intermediate shaft to the Steering Column then place the Steering Column's intermediate shaft seal while observing the fastener notice in service precautions. You should complete the installation by securing the intermediate shaft seal bolts at 3 nm torque (27 in. Lbs.).
