Re: [T3] Steering box freeplay


Tehr is an adjustment on the top of the box. Thee is a screw inside of a
nut. Loosen up the nut and screw the screw down, the tighten the nut up
again.

Unfortunately I can not get a wrench in there to tighten it. So I finger
tighten it and when it loosens up again I retighten it.
