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. ![]() 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' |
