    Oh, OK. Well, I can put the wheel on anyway I want there is no notch in the spline
  7. mowerman
    No, that’s not it. I already looked at those a long time ago, but thanks for that.

    I don’t think the last time this box was apart. They had it timed properly because it used to turn sharper one way and I don’t remember which way it was now.
  9. mowerman
    Take it apart again no that’s not gonna happen. If something goes slow with this box I’m just going to order a rebuilt. That thing was way too much work.

    My spline allows you to put the wheel wherever you want. I’ll put it together and drive it around a little bit and find Straight Centerpoint and yes, I have drivin trucks with an off steering wheel. that will drive you nuts.
  11. mowerman
    I don’t know what happened. I checked the timing three times and the timing mark is way off. I’m going to have to put it in a different position right now. I can’t get it to go on at all. I don’t know what happened. I’ll have to get something too file the spline Slightly. I’m going to run out in a little while and take the lines down. Glad this thing is almost finished.

    Thanks for all your suggestions. My little 3/8 rod is not going to work for some reason. I was thinking the both holes went through the case and were open on the other side. No, they are not sub scratch that running around done going to eat them and run out there

    Ha ha, hell put that thing back in the closet about a month ago Mrs. mower was bugging me. Hey fat stuff either put that model together and get it off my kitchen table, but thanks for the peptalk.
  22. mowerman
    OK, I found the perfect specimen out of my workshop. Looks like a old carburetor linkage maybe a kick down lever 3/8 course thread about 8 inches long that should do it more progress in a while.
  23. mowerman
    And yes, I’ve adjusted the chain three different times trying to get the right angle. Getting really frustrated since my long awaited. Summer is going away. I’m struggling to think all I’m gonna get done this summer as the staring box and a rare axle seal and it’s gonna be too cold to do anything With a fiber glass
  24. mowerman
    Thanks I think I’ve talked myself into running a smaller bolt through one of the holes first I think I have a big chunk of 3/8 threaded rod. I have to go out take care of a couple of things. I’ll take a look and see if I have it handy, if not, I’ll stop and pick something up. Thanks for that Dave.

    I was also thinking of pushing a smaller bolt through everything and tightening it with a nut that way it would be somewhat lined up and at least Straight
