Using puller 67.7824.9516 (Fig. 5-10), remove the ball pins from the conical sockets on the levers.
Fig. 5-10. Removing the ball joints of the steering linkage
Remove the cotter pins and unscrew the nuts securing the ball joints of the middle and side rods to the pitman arm and to the pendulum arm. Using puller 67.7824.9516, remove the pins from the corresponding sockets on the levers and remove the rods.
Install the steering rods in the reverse order of removal. Tighten all the nuts of the ball joints with a torque wrench and then cotter pin them. If the nut cutout does not match the hole from the cotter pin, then turn the nut by an angle less than 60° to ensure cotter pinning.
After installation, adjust the front wheel alignment.
