  Q: How to replace the front cross-member for the steering gear on Buick Rainier?

  A: First, to lower the car while lifting the vehicle, enable the vehicle's wheels to slide along the relevant concentrated sides of the hoisting support according to the lift's elevating height degrees estimation. Unbolt the engine shield mounting bolts, then remove the engine shield. Subsequently, remove the rear lower Control Arm Bracket to frame mounting bolts and the steering gear crossmember mounting bolts to remove the steering gear crossmember. During the installation, start with the steering gear crossmember and make sure that you read the fastener notice in service precautions. Tighten the steering gear crossmember with its mounting bolts, to 50 n.m (37 lb ft). Then, bolt the rear lower Control Arm Bracket to frame mounting bolts while tightening them to 240 n.m (177 lb ft). After that, replace the engine shield and mounting bolts, tightening to 25 n.m (18 lb ft), and, ultimately, lower the vehicle.
