Time for all new Steering 444-544

posted by  someone claiming to be erik on  Sun Apr 10 05:09 CST 2005 [RELATED]

don't forget to replace ALL the bushings too, including the idler arm bushing. You will be amazed at how wonderful the steering can be when refurbished.
When I redid the steering box, I took it apart (carefully its aluminum)and found a local machine shop guy with gray hair who knew how to ream aluminum by hand and not put it in a machine. I brought him the new bushings and for $60 he did it perfect...I did not trust my hamfisted self to atttempt this part. Then it just put it all back together again.

Good luck.
-Erik
