[Silly Little Cars] 1977 Truckster loose/sloppy steering

[Directpart at aol.com]

If you have a three wheel model there is an idler gear between the top and  
bottom gear in the steering box. Loosen the top and bottom nut on this 
gear,  turn the steering wheel to the left to pull the idler gear in and tighten 
the  nuts. Let us know if we can be of further assistance. We will need 
your model  number like 898xxx 7710 for more specific questions.

Hi All,  


I just got a 1977 truckster.  It's in a pretty rough shape, but  street 
legal.  My first question is the steering box.  It has pretty  sloppy steering. 
 What should I check first?  Perhaps a worn out  steering gear box or a 
problem down by the wheels?


Thanks,


Don
