There is a thrust bearing in the steering box that probably needs replacing.Dappermuis wrote:Checked the oil leak out last night, and discovered that the bellhousing bolts were not completely tight, so I tightened them, and saw a lot less oil on the driveway this morning....
Also checked out the play on the steering... It is bad news, I assume, the shaft that comes out of the box, where the drop arm attaches, has play, a lot. you can move it in and out of the box
Can this be tightened?
