Any idea on how to tighten up my steering? it seems as if I have to turn the wheel a 1/4 turn to get her to respond. Maybe in 2 or 3 weeks when it dries out here I can go check my tie rods and the like.
X2 on that i have some play in the wheel not a full 1/4 turn like you but more than i care for so anyone got a fix it idea other than buying a new steering box ?
That is quite the title you have there. i was not expecting what your question was, but it makes sense.

check your intermediate shaft first.
the one that connects the steering gear to the steering column.
they fail more often than do the gearboxes.
If it turns out the shaft is the problem there are some replacement shafts that are much stronger, the dodge guys use them on their trucks, can't remember the name but they can be used on a ford truck as well.
would a stabilizer help?X2 on that i have some play in the wheel not a full 1/4 turn like you but more than i care for so anyone got a fix it idea other than buying a new steering box ?
