Tightening steering?
My steering is VERY loose - how do I tighten it up? I can turn wheel about 3 inches either way with zero drag or pull on tires..
I can align tires - install about anything but have zero idea how to do this!   Thanks |

Re: Tightening steering?
I believe that on this model there are rebuild kits available. You might also need to check the tie rod ends and the bushings for the king pins.

Re: Tightening steering?
exactly - get under the cart and have a helper move the steering wheel within the loose zone... you should be able to see what is moving and what is not. THe steering box has a replaceable rack and pinion if needed.

Post 2001 easier access than pre 2001 but yeah, pretty straight forward. Kits readily available.

Re: Tightening steering?
Don't forget grease all spindles, tie rods, pitman arm, and steering gearbox if it has those.
My cart had a lot of slop and after doing this it reduced the play by half. |
