I have a question about adjusting the steering box worm gear end play, I have read the instruction book a number of times. I loosened the bolts and have the 1/8" space between the end cover and the body. After a close inspection I see there are multiple very thin shims that first looked like one thick gasket. Instructions say not to take the cover off as the rollers will fall out. Does anyone have experience as what I could use for a tool to remove a shim or two? And how to go about it? Thank you.
