Greetings all,

My steering box seems to be very loose. I just took the car down to San Francisco and back, and at the start of the trip, all seemed well, but by the time I got back to Portland the wheel seemed loose.

The car tracked all over the road on the way back. LOTS of tiny steering corrections were needed at all times.

All the suspension parts are brand new (tie rods, ball joints, shocks, bushings, etc...) Car was alligned before I left. Tires have been balanced as well.

I'm pretty sure it's the steering box because when the car is at a stop, there's a lot of play at the wheel. In the past there hasn't been any.

What's involved in tightening the Steering box?

Thanks!
