Hey Guys,

I just received my manual steering box back from Firm Feel. It is a manual box that they overhauled. My question is how do I make sure that the pitman arm is properly indexed? It looks like some of the splines are different on the steering box shaft. Any advice?

Thanks in advance,
Brian

I'd turn the box (steerng col) halfway between its' lock to lock travel. Set the front wheels straight ahead. At that point see if the pitman lines up with the splines
