1944 Farmall M tractor,tricycle. Last year I bought a steering kit with bushings and bearings and installed it on my M, along with turning the sector gear and buying a new/used steering shaft with worm gear from Bates corp. I just completed a wheel bearing and seal replacement. Before I started any work the steering wheel would turn 90 degrees before the wheels moved. After all this work the steering wheel turns the wheels instantly, no play. I still have wobble going down the road. I did not replace the universal joint because it seemed tight and it has a grease fitting. What else is there to look at for wobble? I wonder how well these tractors handled new from the factory? Ideas? Thanks, Ellis
