Son-in-law's steering failed today. The steering shaft is anchored at the bottom by running through a hole in a steel plate. The hole wore oblong, letting the big and little teethed gears to separate.
What is the best fix? I'm sure the dealer would replace the plate, but we're thinking of trying to incorporate a bushing or bearing. Before we go trying to reinvent the wheel I thought I'd ask if anyone has a tried and true solution? Thanks in advance for any ideas
