Wasting money? Mine had over a quarter-turn of play before the wheels would begin to move. There is no way that an adjustment or a new steering shock would have taken that out.

The adjustment can make the steering feel stiffer, but doesn't do much if there is substantial wear in the box, IMHO.

I paid $295 for a rebuild from Meridian Auto Parts and am very satisfied. 1-888-275-2525 or websales@meridianautoparts.com
