Default Re: 7 tooth steering box

I've never been inside a 7 tooth box but there are a few threads on here that are recent about it. From what I gather you need to play with the shims on yours to reduce the shaft end play. The shims are between the bottom of the box and the plate where the light switch attaches.



Also, the grease fitting that is on the steering box takes oil, not grease. Just unscrew the fitting and add oil. The fitting where the sector shaft goes through takes grease, good for the bushings and helps reduce oil leakage.
