Steering box bottom plate
The steering boxes in both our 50 and 52 leak on the bottom plate even with the thicker cornhead grease and peen-rite box lube.
The horn wire tube is dry, it appears to be leaking out of the paper shims. Every time I check it, the bottom plate bolts are loose. I can get about a 1/8 turn to get back to 15lbs. There are no lock washers on those bolts, anyone else have that issue? What did you do?
