Hello,
I have one of the early years Ford 8N, before there was adjustment in the steering box. Does anyone know how to correct the issue of horrible wobbly steering. 3rd gear is pretty much useless at this point. Mowing in a field or brush-hogging are fine, but forget about driving down the driveway or on a back road. I have seen lots of posts on how to adjust the newer 8N tractors steering, but the older ones don't have that system. Does someone make rebuilt steering boxes? Is the replacement process difficult?
I would think this topic has been discussed on here before, but I couldn't find it when I searched.
If there is an older thread, I'd appreciate a link.
thanks,
Chad
