Hey folks - my 8N is back from an entire engine rebuild and has the dreaded 'wobbly steering' problem (clarification: it had this before, but it by far the least of the problems). I thought perhaps the problem was the drag links, since the dust boots on the rear end of the links were torn up, but they seem okay.
It's loose enough that in 4th gear the front wheels wobble like crazy.
Here's a video of the play problem...
The question is do I start hunting around for an 8N steering box (which I've seen on the stores fro around $600 - ow), or is this something that can be repaired?
