Talking Loose steering box, fixed

Figured out today why I was getting so much play in my gear box, seems the PO did not have the correct bolts and used some long ones with spacers and either tney worked loose or he did not tighten them as all 4 were very very loose!
Drove the truck home when i bought it 250 miles and was real happy with the steering tight ans drove straight but it seemed like every time I drove it there was more slop in the wheel well now I know why, gotta love some of these PO and there half ass ways..

One nice thing is 4 new bolts will be alot cheaper then a new gear box that I thought I was going to need to buy.
