Two tooth steerg box

[Terry,NJ]

I put the new parts in the box from my coupe and I need some answers.
1st, does it make a heckuva big difference if I don't drive the worm the last .100 onto the shaft? So far, I used my backhoe, a forklift and a hand sledge hammer and a Mapp gas torch. Advice; Never buy the worm separately and think "I'll put it on myself"! It lifted the front wheels off the ground and never moved. The Case 580e weighs 14,000 lbs. I figure 1/2 that weight or about 3.5 tons was on it and the wheels came off the ground! I hammered it into the night and gave up with .100 to go. It wasn't moving any more.

2, Can someone post or reference the adjustment sequence. Even with the new parts, I can't get all the play out of the steering shaft. I tried everything.

3, How does one remove the lower bearing cup? I found a 22mm socket fit really well inside the bore, it caught the little lip nicely. Pressing and hammering didn't budge it so I checked the condition of the race. It was good so I left it.
