Okay so I finally got my steering to the point I can actually hook it up (I had been waiting on a U-joint)
The box was sent to me "loose" so I could make sure it worked. Anyway I followed the instructions on how to adjust it, but things just do not seem right.
Here is what is happening:
If I remove all the play in the shaft to the point that it will not actually move in and out when I turn the wheel, I get a very hard grab in the middle.
If I back it off until I get a "slight" catch in the middle, the shaft moves in and out up to 1/4 inch. To me there is something wrong.
Anyone have some suggestions?
This is an aluminum reversed corvair box. I have a cast iron non-reversed one sitting on the shelf if I need to figure something else out.
If it is needed, I can make a video!
