Loose Steering on 400

Posted by super99 on May 31, 2007 at 02:12:57 from (207.144.199.121):

Took the loader off of my 400 to use to spray with. The steering is so loose that it is difficult to keep on the row. It has a Char-lynn PS unit on it and coupler between the steering shaft and the orbit motor is where the worst slop is. I took it apart, the hole in the shaft on the orbit motor is smaller than 3/8, a 11/32 drill bit will go thru it. The coupler has 3/8 holes in it and is wore enough that it is wobbles on the shaft. The knuckle on the steering shaft fits loosely on the other end of the coupler shaft and wobbles there too. The shaft on the orbit motor is too hard for my drill bits to make the hole 3/8's. Anyone have any ideas on how to tighten up the steering? Can you buy a new coupler? Where do you find a pin the right size to fit the hole snuggly? It has a roll pin that is too small in it and must be wired in to keep from loosing it. Open to any thoughts or sugestions. thanks, Chris
