I have ford 5000. Have disassembled and reassembled steering column down to and including the 28 ball bearing in the nut assembly. I did not go further. When I put the column back together the very first time I turned the wheel to the right it goes all the way as it should. When I turn back to the left the steering wheel stops at a little past neutral towards the left. I can turn to the right and back to neutral easily with no problem. I have removed and reinstalled according to the manual 3 times. I am at my wits end.The original reason for disassembly was to replce seal that was allowing fluid to pass through the column and out near the steering wheel. Needless to say I didn't need to go quite as far as I did but it was workin ok prior to disassembly and reassembly except for the leak. Leak is fixed but won't turn to left.
HELP!!!!

What happens when you bench test out of tractor? Drop by your local Ford repair shop pick ther brains for ideas.Does it turn freely or is it tight? There is adj nut and if its too tight may cause heavy streering.If it comes to a stop too soon going left was it centered? It maybe assembled right but streering arm is in wrong position-therefore allowing you to turn right too far and not far enough to the left.
