Ok, you guys have got me a bit paranoid about overtightening the steering box and after having changed it, I DON'T want to do it again. (Is there any potential rebuilding I could do on the old one?)
So, I'm going to ask a simple question: If I rotate the input shaft from the steering wheel back and forth and watch the pitman arm, can I safely adjust the box just up to the point where I get an immediate response? This box looked perfectly adjusted on it's own. I turned the input shaft and the pitman arm moved immediately in both directions. But now in the car it's about the same as the last one. I have maybe like 30 degrees of input shaft movement back and forth before I get the pitman arm to move... So, is it possible to get GOOD steering out of these cars or are they forever doomed to drive like a tractor where you have to waddle back and forth with the wheel? Levi (:
