I have a SOA and 35's OEM power steering on a 1980. Replaced all the tie rod, relay rod, drag link, ends and at one time or another replacd all the seals in the factory PS box. Ready to take the next step in tighening up the steering and minimizing wander. (caster, toe, and the steering box)
Seems like a few months ago, there was a post describing adjusting the steering slop, via a screw on the back side of the OEM steering box. The discussion went back and forth on the wisdom tightening the adjusting screw right in the middle of the wear point on the gears. Then somebody posted the FSM which said that was exactly how the streering was ment to be tighten-up.
I cannot pull that thread up out of the archives. Does anybody recall the thread I am trying to remember, or otherwise can post up the specifics of locating and tightening the screw in the OEM power steering box to tighten up steering wheel slop?
