·CJ -saginaw Q\'s
Went to go look at a steering box today for my CJ . It's the common Saginaw one . The bottom of it where the steering arm attaches is loose... It wiggles a little from side to side, also causing play in the wheel. The steering arm is snug but its the shaft that it attaches to is loose. Then on top of the box there was a slotted bolt with a tightening nut on it. It looks like some kind of adjuster or something. If it is, can this be adjusted to correct the play on the steer arm shaft???What exactly does it adjust?? Or should I just stay away from this steer box? My instincts say look for one in better condition. Steering is not something I want to take any chances with.
