busted steering box
ibmoknegawsklov - May 7th, 2005 at 07:56 PM

With my wifes love of getting air in my baja and my need to keep it running is there a way of beefing up the steering box.......

mine seems to develop heaps of freeplay that no adjusting will fix.....


is there a better choice of box? its for a 70 baja.


or perhaps a way to control the other half.............ok now i'm asking the impossible...lol

I know of a guy who modified his beetle to rack and pinion steering. Does a lot of offroad racing and handles big air landings without any problems.

Have you tried adjusting the big 17mm allen key adjustment? Not the little one on the top..
