steering turning radias
 

I looked thru the forum and could not find an issue similar to what I have. 1946 Ford sedan, tudor, when tuning left, the wheels will turn only about 1 1/2 turn on the steering wheel. It is hard to make a sharp or full turn left. Turning right is no problem, the steering wheel will turn at least 2 revolutions and the turning radius is good, able to make compete turn around a corner. I cannot figure out how to make an adjustment to correct this. Turning left is really limited.

If you drive in your garage mark the floor straight line on right wheel only.
Now center the steering wheel let it stay there, and on the pitman arm the link adjust to line up on floor. You will see to make link longer or shorter.

Had to shorten the link on my F1. Had the same problem and that cured it.

I must be turning or working on the wrong adjustment. The one I loosened and turn only moved the steering wheel. I am probably doing something wrong?

Unhook the drag link from the steering box, make sure the front wheel are straight ahead, turn the steering wheel all the way one way, count the turns all the other way, now turn the wheel half way back to center the wheel, now adjust the drag link to box. Walt

You should have 4 1/4 turns on the steering wheel lock to lock.

When driving the car is the steering wheel straight looking at horn rum.
It will not be exact but close to middle you have 1 1/2 one side, what's the other side.
If off to right, turning wheel to left turns wheel in. You would need to shorten drag link.
