Hey all, whats a normal amount of play to have on the steering shaft? I feel like have a decent amount play in the steering shaft, and I am wondering if a brand new steering rack should be tighter?

If you can feel it, it's probably pretty bad. You can get them rebuilt for a reasonable price. Dave Harriman

Woodhaven Industries
1793 W. Pine Rd. Oregon IL 61061 (815) 732 2806 It's been a few years, so I don't know if the info is correct, but Woodhaven did mine. |
Rod, JoshO and others: Woodhaven is long gone and the new outfit that builds and rebuilds our racks is:
The Chassis Shop 1931 N. 24th Street Mears, MI 49436 www.ChassisShop.com 800-530-9494 orders 231-873-3640 other inquiries Sorry I cannot remember the guy's name that rebuilds our racks. He took awhile to do mine in early 2014 because they had to make up a bunch of gear racks on a CNC but the results were amazing and I felt like I had a new rack and no slop. 2014 price shipped to me was about $320. Hope that helps. Ask John Walsh what slop is acceptable. I think his steering wheel went about 1.5 inches on each side off front deadcenter and he was still good on the track Mark Fick
I'm pretty confident my last words will be 'well shit that didn't work' |
