the backlash was one of the first things we tried. [the box is/was new when it was installed]
we backed it off 5 turns and there was no difference.
the manufacturer of the box stated the box was built to be tight on center.
i should also mention this is the first time we installed a 500 box. the other conversions we did [on GM stuff] used the 600/605 style box[es].
how many turns should it take to notice any play ?
on any boxes ever adjusted, unless they were totally shot, 2 or 3 turns usually tightened them up. i would think 5 turns looser would be noticeable ?
