Default Re: sloppy steering

I rebuilt my 7 tooth and have very little play in the steering wheel. I put a new sector shaft in, a complete new steering shaft and worm from Snyder's, replaced both thrust bearings, replaced both bushings on the steering shaft and replace both bushings on the sector shaft. I also installed the lower steering shaft seal with the tube to replace the old style. I made a oring retainer for the sector shaft to stop that leak area. In a nut shell everything inside except the shims on the steering shaft, and the lower bearing housing on the steering shaft. You will end up spending a lot of money on all those parts and the bushings have to be fit carefully. If you have a driver I would suggest a Randy Gross steering box.
