steering gearbox/pitman play

Postby geospider » Sun Aug 27, 2017 11:59 am

Replacing all suspension. rear has been done, front going fairly well. Although new idler needed.
So, i have centerlink and tie rod off. I am able to move the pitman arm about 1/2" or so of play before it grabs. Is this normal? Is this something the adjustment on the top can change? I also have had play in the steering wheel.

I have owned this car for 4 months so have found and learned a loot so far.
