Steering Box problem...

Featured Replies

I heard that my noise(only on the left side on bad roads) can be resolved from an adjuster that my steering box have.

Anyone now about this...? :banghead: :banghead:

Anyone now about this adjustment of steering box...??????:confused:

there is an adjustment for the lash between the rack and the pinion.

on the bottom of the rack is a nut and lock nut.

its only good for so much, you dont want to have it so tight that it binds the steering.

 

usually rattle is caused by the bushings in the end of the rack housing showing wear. a rebuilt rack with new inner tie rods is the cure... ive seen them priced between 160.00 and 200.00.

 

havent located the parts to DIY yet, but havent called dealer.

i would install a rebuilt before i spent much on doing it myself.

Any details about how much(any clue) should I adjust the nut and in what sense??

 

Thank you.:)

the noiise is probably the ball joint, not the steering
