... on tooth wear? - this probably affects the steering wheel play, radial ..
When I took everything apart, I carefully looked at the gear teeth and the rack itself - I did not see any development, although the backlash at the steering rack was present BEFORE, tk. the rack was not pressed against the gear.
AFTER, when I put everything together, I don’t feel any backlash
.. although, of course, the rail is under 20 years old and for certain the backlash is already greater than the first-factory one.
————-
Walrus, try to pull your rail with your hand, the rail itself - if the rail is present, then maybe this will help - below under the gear-rail assembly there is an adjusting plug with a hexagon by 15, only this plug is counter-contracted, so - to open it and try to tighten it. but if it does not pull up - the rail continues to chatter, then perhaps the pressure piston has bitten for some reason and the pressure spring cannot rip it off and press down on the rail, even after tightening the plug - when would I advise you to unscrew the plug and pull out this piston (there he has there is a hole in the center that you can hook on) - see what and how, why wedged - eliminate, add lubricant and tighten over a new one and lock - the rail should not hang out. Perhaps this procedure will reduce the radial play of the steering wheel.

Vraki is everything. the handlebars are never removed and welded to the tube.

Sorry. but did you understand what you said?
We went over the rail, but you don't even suspect that the steering wheel is removed.

I apologize again. but laughed heartily.

PS nemeckiy, right. do as he said.

Before installation, the rail must be centered, in any book it is described how, even with a picture and dimensions in millimeters ..

Even if you decide to remove the steering wheel, do not unscrew the nut to the end (which attaches the steering wheel to the shaft), otherwise you will grab it with the steering wheel when you remove it by the teeth.

First, I'll show you a sketch.
[attachmentid = 80796]
As you can see from the sketch, the side that is inserted into the rail has 4 faces with slots.
The second side - which is on the side of the steering wheel - has small splines.
Bottom line - you can put the rail in one of the angles of 90 degrees, and the steering wheel, almost as you like.
Well, since you did it, you put the steering wheel under 90 degrees. turned, it's easier to remove the steering wheel and put it right.
I don't even know what else to write, it seems that everything is clear.
The only thing that will change is the steering lock. not in the state will be, but shifted to one side or another

Sketch for a larger steering shaft.

I went to do camber, the master shook the steering rod, said I will not do camber. Says you need to tighten the rail. I call the service station at Opel (Usatovo), they are talking on the phone, they do not pull up on the Cadets, they say it will jam. It is necessary to change the entire rail. Thank you, good bye.
Where are the brothers really?
How is this problem solved or should the rods hang out?

Nothing should hang there at all. You can tighten the rail, just what will it do? There, the spring will simply compress more strongly, and the backlash will not disappear from this (checked by me personally). Change it only, and only for a new one. Although I am looking after a beu with a gur (in the next topic I ask what to look for when buying).

angelborn, while you can tighten the locking bolt (located at the bottom - where the steering column comes in), you need to unlock the washer and turn it a little.
but this is a temporary measure. as mentioned above.
although I pressed and rode like this for half a year (and sold the car like that, although I told the new owner about the problem, and he still drives (I don't know whether he did it or not))

Thanks Rus. STOshniki say that it is better not to squeeze, it will wedge. The plug costs 2 USD, the work is 100-150 UAH. Shit-question.
I'm thinking, is it just a sleeve or something else? Bearings for example.

Repairing a steering rack or power steering gear, as it is also called, is an important matter - you need to be able to do it yourself.Why? Because if there is a malfunction of the steering rack, then there is a failure of the steering, and this can turn into a disaster on the road. To prevent this from happening, you need to know how to repair a steering rack.

Since the rail is the part that connects the steering wheel to the wheels, it also feels the unevenness of the roads, impacts when cornering. Accordingly, the steering rack wears out quite a bit and needs proper care.

  • there was a knock in the rail, a noticeable beat in the steering wheel;
  • the steering wheel starts to spin harder;
  • when the steering wheel was rotated, the play of the steering rack began to be felt;
  • power steering fluid began to leak from the steering column;
  • unusual sounds appeared when the power steering was working.

Basically, repairing a steering rack on a VAZ 21099 is not much different from repairing a steering rack on a BMW 3 (E46), for example. The principle of operation is the same, but there are some differences in the design. I must admit that the work is quite difficult - before starting it, you need to know the steering rack device.

A steering rack repair kit will come in handy, consisting of oil seals, O-rings, bushings, as well as a corrugation, a gear shaft bearing and a tube of grease. In the tool box you should have: a special octagonal wrench, bearing removers and pliers for mounting a circlip. Of course, a standard set of wrenches should also be at hand. Do-it-yourself steering rack repair is done on an overpass or inspection ditch.

This happens in three stages - 1) removal of the steering rack, disassembly / cleaning of parts; 2) replacement of unusable parts with new ones; 3) check the steering rack gear shaft.

  1. Use a flat screwdriver to unscrew the tie rods from the steering rack
  2. Unscrew the lower gear shaft plug.
  3. Unscrew the lock nut.
  4. Remove the circlip and drive out the shaft.
  5. Remove the lower oil seal
  6. Remove the retaining pin that is blocking the upper oil seal.
  7. Turn the retaining plug, pull out the retaining ring by the wire.
  8. Pull out the steering rack on the right side, remove the oil seal with a plastic bushing from it.
  9. Pull out the oil seal, plug, remove the spring, the clamping mechanism.
  1. Apply special grease and place the inner oil seal (spring down).
  2. Place the rail in the housing.
  3. Put the bushing on the right oil seal, lubricate all parts, install the oil seal.
  4. Install the plug, remembering to fix it with wire.
  5. Slide the lower oil seal onto the toothed shaft.
  6. Set the steering rack to the middle position and insert the toothed shaft into place (after having lubricated it).
  7. Install the upper oil seal, install the circlip.
  8. Tighten the lower lock nut, as well as the bearing, plug.
  9. Install and tighten the hold-down mechanism, spring and plug.

Further, the installation proceeds in the reverse order.

As seen, DIY steering rack repair it is quite within the power of a person who is familiar with repairs in general terms. By the way, mechanical and hydraulic steering racks, which are much more common than their modern counterpart, the electronic steering rack, are subject to self-repair. The latter needs a special setting, which is better to entrust to professionals.

The steering rack, being a very important element of a vehicle, directly affects handling and road safety. Therefore, repairing the Opel Cadet steering rack with your own hands must be done only if you are sure that you will make it according to the rules. If necessary, you should contact a professional car service. There they will replace or repair the rail quickly and with high quality.

It is unlikely that you will find everything you need for work, from a lift to a repair kit specifically for Opel Kadett steering racks. And the car service has it all. The order of work is as follows: first, the old rail will be removed, cleaned, and carefully examined. Removing anthers, regulator tubes, rods are the following items in the repair program. After that, disassembly of the regulator body begins. All steps are carried out very carefully - you cannot break the parts and get confused in the order of their dismantling / installation. The inner seals and the O-ring are pulled out - the rail is disassembled. After inspecting the device, the first conclusion is made: is it advisable to change the steering rack to a new one or is it possible to repair the removed one? You don't need to worry about where to buy a new unit. We offer and sale Opel Kadett steering racks. We also supply custom-made slats - especially for your car.

The assembly of the rail after repair work is carried out in the reverse order.New low-yielding seals require particularly careful handling - they can easily get damaged. The correct assembly of the rack has a direct effect on the car's handling and, therefore, on the degree of driving safety.

That is why the repair of the Opel Kadett steering rack should be entrusted to professionals. It is necessary to contact the auto repair shop at the slightest knock, leak, steering rack clearance. In our company, all repair work on this element will be carried out in a short time and with high quality.

    Thank you all for your support and understanding.

when you turn the steering wheel all the way to the left, at the end of the turn, the steering wheel itself tightens up, and when you start turning to the right, you need to make an effort to disrupt its type literally half a turn and the steering wheel turns on perfectly

if it is so constantly then try to tighten the rail, a little, maybe this will be, if it does not help, then you need to remove it because there may be a bite in the teeth on the worm itself or the transmission shaft, you need to disassemble and it will be visible there because it is something related to the teeth, maybe somewhere there is already a receding hairline or a chip.

clear, do you have mechanics or hydraulics?

what to do if, when turning the steering wheel to the left, bites all the way

what is eating, describe in more detail.

Broke the worm nut, is it the same on the cadet and Lanos with the Polish rail?

everything is correct, therefore they suggest that they are the same.

Thank you very much, just offer a rake from Vectra or a cadet to Lanos

everything is the same there, there may be a difference in binoculars and an anther, a worm, a shaft, a bearing, a spring and a cracker are all the same.

Are there still Korean ones, or just different binoculars?

it is completely identical in filling.

useful, but you miss the most important moments, for the sake of which you shoot the video.
When they put the binoculars, they missed them, they didn’t show, when they put a counter washer on the thread, they didn’t show it either, but I did it myself, I know, they didn’t show how they tightened the nut on the spring, too, a dreary thing when you do it for the first time, but you hide it, apparently you also suffered, meaning this video? is not clear at all. dislike.

there is no torment, everything is simple there, but for the first time it may not be clear for whom, but they constantly make comments to me that the video is long and tedious, since I initially filmed everything in detail, many understand what needs to be done when dismantled, but thanks for the comment and for dislik, that's your opinion. In the future, I will come up with a golden mean so that it is clear for both beginners and experienced ones.

Good evening, when I turn the steering wheel all the way, if I let it go, it’s okay? I’m dumb because of the steering rack, (the rack when cornering, rip and tap) Opel cadet, is it necessary to minify ??

the rail is tightened, adjustment is needed and then the steering wheel will return to its place. If it knocks and gives off to the steering wheel, then there may be a bearing and a bushing axial on the worm shaft, there is nothing else there! You can always install a repair binocular or buy a new one, check the boot and if it is torn, change it! This is called - doing the restoration of the rail.

Say whether weasel, on the short side of the worm with the bearing, the sleeve is to blame? If I was the first time picking up the rail, then I was “smart” the lyudin still threw it in, and I repeated it, it was so necessary. And on video, I don’t bach there. If I am pushing the rail, and if I let it be hurried.

maybe someone tried to eliminate the knock in this way and put it there, since everything in the video is everything that should have been there, nothing more! By the way, why shove anything there - you can replace the bearing with a simple three-blade puller - for dismantling, buy it on the market, for example - we bought about one dollar in 2016 and press it back. The matter is essentially penny and the problem will be solved.

Thanks! everything is clear and understandable.

thank you for your understanding too!

Excellent vidos, everything is clear and understandable, now there is confidence that I myself can fix the rail on my kadik, the author of good luck and prosperity!)

Thank you for your understanding, sincere human thanks! :)))

Sasha, after replacing the steering tip, a knock appeared in the steering rack, and specifically where is the worm gear from the steering wheel. I make such movements with the steering wheel on a standing car, as it were, I check the backlash, back and forth, and there is a knock. Another nuance, if, with such actions with tapping, I take any traction, and lift it up, as it were, then the knock disappears. Maybe you can somehow regulate or disassemble unambiguously? Thanks for answers.

Alexander Mart Understood, I will shoot and at the same time I will do THAT.

In fact, you don't really care to take it off, so you can check everything at once, whether it is binoculars or a bearing. Everything costs a penny, only for the bearing you need a small and preferably three-legged puller.

Alexander March Thank you, I'll look at the silent blocks, but the knock is clearly from the gearbox where the worm is.

if before that everything was 100% normal, then most likely the salentblock of your traction, the rail cannot knock because of this, if you didn’t knock before and you didn’t hear, we changed the salentblocks from Lanos, they all fit and the rumble was gone, change it in a couple. I have a replacement video, nothing fancy and the comfort is back. As an option, there may still be binoculars, but this needs to be checked more accurately, but according to your descriptions there is a problem!

I vibrate, maybe I can get you with my own power supply, more than one power supply. My turner has turned a bushing of brass, it seems that the simple metal is not even good. the lower bearing of the steering rack of the Lanos, and the price is the same. I’ll buy it, not just go, and a penny on the windshield. I’ll write to you.

Sens, Lanos, Cadet, Vectra - mechanical slats are all the same! You can safely take it. We took off the bearing and took it from the store according to its marking, it is two or three times cheaper for the bushing, see for yourself, since we did not have any production there.

I don’t mind you. Maybe I didn’t mind, but I don’t mind you. I’m feeding for
the lower sleeve is located in the housing, the malium shaft with the bearing rotates in the new one. Maybe V thought about the sleeve on the great shaft and show a video of 6.47 hvl. So turn the turner into the sleeve. Vibachte may not be sighted, or I’ll tell you about it.

this bushing has not changed, it has practically no output, if it is not completely broken, it does not need to be changed, the bearing always fails, its replacement will be enough.

Still, one of the power supplies for such metal sharpened the sleeve.

if you remove the old bearing, then it will be marked, and buy the same, the bushing was sharpened to order from second-grade plastic!

Say, be a weasel, how to take a bearing from a small shaft? How do you remember the bushing in the housing, does the maliy shaft enter into the yak?

You can remove the bearing with a simple two or three paw puller, the bushings are sold but not always and they are long enough for a long time, if they are cheap, then shit, we ordered a turner and also cut the threads in the bushing and drilled a hole in the body! For the summer, we already have two racks and I will shoot a video on them, since I have already checked from practice that for almost four years in taxi mode and the rake does not knock, this is significant for me and our experience can be filmed and shown! Well, it's up to you - to sharpen or buy.
