Does any one know if you can tighten the universl j0int up on the steeing shaft on a Bandolero to take the slop out of it?
Thanks,

Very dificult to rebuild u-joint in the sterring shaft-- Easier to replace--years of using this type of u-joint never worn one out--you may look at rack and pinion for adjustment and or worn parts--I have noticed some play in quick disconnect in sterring wheel . Tim.
ba/thejafan:
Where do I look for adjustment in the steering rack and pinion, it does seem loose there?
Thanks,

Sounds like the rack may need rebuilding. Check for slop in the steeringwheel disconect first (a pretty common problem).

The pinion and the rack are straight cut gears, little can be done to tighten loose play, it is best to replace with new steering unit, you may not be aware of abuse your unit has taken .The steering unit is one the most important piece on the car.Don't take a chance on old parts they will break when you least expect it,usually at speed entering the corner.
