Hi,
My 49 8n still has the early style steering and I'm looking for some tips for proper adjustment and how to determine worn parts.
I understand how to adjust each side and the geometry of how it works, adjustment has improved the lash in the steering but I have binding. I didn't drive it much before adjusting, but it bound pretty bad after adjustment, and appeared to be worse turning to the left and back. I also put a zerk in the fill plug and filled with corn head grease. I have backed off a couple of bolt holes on each side and don't that i can tell that it improved binding much at all.
Does someine have a step by step procedure for adjusting this style of steering?
Also, how do i diagnose worn parts, and can i get repair parts?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
