My L4200's steering is pretty sloppy - it has a toasted tie rod end on one side (which I'm gonna get to eventually), but even w/o that, the steering is quite sloppy. Someone posted that there is a slop adjustment on the steering box - but I haven't been able to find it.

Could someone please lead me to the adjustment screw/nut on my L4200's steering box? Also, I am not completely familiar with the innards of the machine, so please be specific.

Thank you - Jay

Not the same model by far but on my B7100 Kubota its on the right hand side of the worm drive box. Just a set screw covered by a plug.
