lowpass5 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Does anyone have an exploded parts diagram for the Stevens manual steering rack they could post or email me? I have an S4- on factory manual, but that covers the power rack. No help for my "93. My rack is a little sloppy and I'm wondering if I can tighten the gear mesh. Appreciate the help.

andydclements Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 I don't have pics, I know Travis (Vulcangrey) did but not sure if they are still live. The method of tightening the pinion to the rack is by shimming a plate which has a spring and bush pushing against the rack, but I don't have the technical specs on determining the amount of shim required.

lowpass5 Posted August 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Thanks Andy, I shot Travis a PM about his experience. Also made an enquiry to JAE about the availability of a rebuild kit. I know SJ sells new racks, but I would prefer to repair or rebuild mine if possible. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
