Reply to "Steering Play"

To install a rack bushing, you must have removed the steering rod at least from the rt side. Its difficult to get the adjustment of that joint back to 'normal' unless you have the factory spanner-wrench. Most everyone uses a pipe wrench or vice-grips on the spanner-nut. The proper adjustment is when the rod barely sags of its own weight. Ford's Pinto and Mustang 2 use the same TYPE of steering and the adjustment procedure is the same (but not spelled out in the Pantera Shop Manual).You may also have lost the spring that is inside each joint.
