I own a Massey 250 and understand the 231 and 240 may be the same. It has power assist steering with the cylinders on the the front axle, one at each side, a turnbuckle and a spool valve under the steering wheel below the dash. My issue is not with the steering but with a 1/4 turn of play in the steering. I cultivate corn and beans and need tight steering for a couple other things as well.
I have been told the steering drive link that attaches at the front of each wheel offers a way to loosen the nut and extend the length to take the slack out of the wheel, but upon further reading it appears those are for toe in and not play in the wheel. Can anyone confirm and can anyone PLEASE tell me how to get the play out of the steering? Is it in the shimming in the box, is it in the turnbuckle, or in fact at the drive link?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated.....
