Hey All,
The steering on my 140 feels pretty sloppy - particularly at highway speeds - and I went to tighten the steering box, only to find that it won't tighten any more. Loosened the lock nut, and it will screw out, but no further in than it is. There are still some threads available above the lock nut, but it just won't go any tighter.
Do I need to replace the steering box? Rebuild it? Or is the problem elsewhere?
Thanks!
