When it wobbles, the steering wheel does not seem to shake as violently as the rest of the steering linkage. He now has a gentleman helping him that knows Model As alot better than I do. They seem to be making some headway at correcting the problem a little at a time. There isn't much left but the steering gear box.

I ended up tightening the drag link a couple more turns. The car went out today and drove over every man hole cover or bump I could find and I'm proud to say it did not wobble or shake or anything. I also tightened up the bolt that holds the pit man arm on as well and that took some play away. So who knows if it's truly fixed but I did a lot of driving and it was so smooth. So maybe it was a combination of everything, but hopefully I am in good shape now. Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions, I think I did them all. Lol. Too bad it's October and the driving season is about over.
