In addition to the steps mentioned earlier, for 1982 through 1987 Continentals and 1984 through 1992 Mark Vlls, raise the front of the vehicle and support it on jackstands. Place a drain pan under the steering gear and remove the power steering pressure and return lines. Mark the relationship of the intermediate shaft flexible coupling to the steering gear input shaft. Separate the tie-rod ends from the spindle arms. Support the steering gear and remove the steering gear-to-frame mounting nuts and bolts. Lower the unit, separate the intermediate shaft from the steering gear input shaft, and remove the steering gear from the vehicle. To install, raise the steering gear into position and connect the intermediate shaft. Install the mounting bolts and washers and tighten the nuts. Connect the tie-rod ends to the steering knuckle arms. Install the intermediate shaft pinch bolt and tighten it. Connect the power steering pressure and return hoses to the steering gear and fill the power steering pump reservoir with the recommended fluid. Lower the vehicle and bleed the steering system.

The pressure and return lines need to be reconnected securely, and the power steering system needs to be filled and bled.
