Hey guys, I just rebuilt a 34 steering box, bushings where tight, brgs where shot .
I used a different worm gear, same sector, worm was the same 15 that I took out, although it was a little different looking,
Problem is the wheel turns almost 1/2 a turn more to the left side ...
Im thinking I have the sector and worm gears miss clocked ..
I was thinking that the worm has no stop, so it could turn the sector complete from one stop to the other .
Miss clocked you think ?
