Manual steering box
Gents,
Does anyone know of a rebuild kit for a manual steering box available? My steering box has tons of play and would like to rebuild it if possible. I have done a few searches online but have not really found much. I want to maintain the manual steering for sentimental reasons or else I would go power. Thanks! |

Re: Manual steering box
There's not much to a manual box. I had a bearing break in mine on the way to work in 1993. The local GMC dealer had the bearing in stock. lol

Re: Manual steering box
There are a couple of adjustments you can make to take some of the slack out.There is a set screw on top loosen it and take the allen head screw clockwise about 1/4 turn try it and see if it helps do it in small increments.
