Q: How to replace the intermediate steering column seal on Chevrolet Impala?
A: Start by clamping down the Steering Wheel in a straight-ahead position through the use of j-42640 (Steering Column Anti-rotation Pin) to protect the sir system from damage. Make sure the Steering Wheel remains locked before disconnecting the Steering Column and intermediate shaft(s) and steering gear components from each other. Any wheel rotation or front tire movement could un-center the sir coil assembly. Lock the Steering Column using the j-42640 pin through the access hole while you detach the intermediate steering shaft seal from the column and disconnect the steering shaft from the column. First collapse the intermediate steering shaft by pushing it down before undoing the intermediate steering shaft seal bolts to unmount the seal from the steering gear thus removing the entire assembly. Place the new intermediate steering shaft seal inside the vehicle before attaching the lower seal to the intermediate shaft and steering gear while the upper seal should sit on top of the lower seal on the dash panel. Connect and join the intermediate steering shaft onto the Steering Column followed by installing the intermediate steering shaft seal to the column and securing the seal bolts at 3 nm (27 lb in). Finally, remove the j-42640 pin.
Q: How to properly replace the Steering Column Seal on the intermediate shaft on Chevrolet Monte Carlo?
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.).
