| Play in Steering Wheel
Shlomo has about 2-3 inches of play in the steering column itself-- I stuck my hand down wherever the column meets the box and could move it all there.
I do not believe the play is coming from mechanical suspension/steering components, that it is just in the column?
How can I fix it? I'd rather not go futzing with adjusting the box if the fault does not lie there!

but thats how it works..............if u have play in the steering, u need to adjust the box...........
otherwise, replace all the old and worn suspension components..........
i know it sucks, but, its how it is...... |

Actually, you check the suspension components first. I would start with the ball joints and the steering damper. Then check the box. Adjusting the box when everything else is loose will only damage the box. |
