Re: Steering gearbox

Paul,

I still have my factory quick ratio-box off my GTA. However, it did have slop in it, and you may need to have it adjusted by a good shop. And its even possible it might need a rebuild. It never leaked though. Just had a large amount of on-center play like all the old boxes do.

If you can't source one locally, i really suggest giving Turn One a call.

Re: Steering gearbox

They can be adjusted if it is normal wear.

Very slowly and very carefully a little bit at a time. :-)

Try getting a hold of Denny, he might have one.

Turn One, Lee's, they are all nice, but you start paying for it pretty quickly.
