Re: Steering box rebuild.

Once the worm gear is worn in the chuck, there is no "adjusting" the slop out of it. It replace or rebuild. If you do an adjustment on it you have to have the front wheels in the air and no tension against the chuck. Again make sure all your front end parts are good. One piece will knock the whole front end out of kilter.

I've got the article saved Steve. I'll send it to you. For the rest, I don't know if it's in the tech archives, Gary?

I finally took my 300 down the road and the steering was much tighter then my Newport and I've replaced all the suspension and steering on the Newport except for the steering box . So, I guess the box is pretty sloppy. I was really surprised how much more responsive the 300 was.

I thought someone posted about a place in Ohio that does rebuilds, This is for a '62 Newport. (I tightened the worm gear a bit and it didn't do much.)

Thanks.
