64C85 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Could also be worn u-joints on the steering shaft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firemack Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Check the drag link , it has 2 adjustable ends that have large screw type threaded ends that can be tightened to reduce the play, if the buttons are popped up then they need to be adjusted. If you have a manual will show how this is adjusted, but basically loosen up the end squeeze down the end play buttons which pop up when too much end play and tighten them down again.
