Steering update

Replaced the Tie Rods & Drag Link today and snugged up the front hub nuts.

This improved the steering but still a little bit of play remaining. Tried to redo the Radias Arm bushings as suggested by Bill but the bolts inside the lower part of spring will require a run to the tool store cause I can't get to them with the wrenches I have.

PB Blaster is great for some of those. May take a week of spraying it down every other day and the use of a wire brush but it will help.

Just like Happy jack suggested with the PB Blaster, soak the bolts several dyas before you try to loosen them. If the c bushings and radius arm bushings don't tighten up the remaining slack it still could be the rag joint and then the steering box.
