Replacing Power Steering Gear
I plan on installing a rebuilt steering gear in my 1992 Honda Civic.
The only area of concern is how do I install the pinnion gear shaft in the steering joint such that the steering wheel will be centered and the wheels will be pointed straight forward?

It shows marking the original pinion shaft at the column u-joint picn bolt. In my situation I am replacing the steering gear with a different one. I assume that I can turn the old and new pinion shaft to full lock and mark the new one in the same position as the old one. Is this correct?
