Been running it for a month and a half now...mostly impressed with the rebuild but I need another opinion about the box...I don't think the pitman arm is tight enough. I think I have too much lateral play. Since I've never done one of these before I'm not sure what to look for (I know the book says 3/32" of play is tolerable)-- I did the thrust bearing upgrade and was concerned about getting it too tight. I did a quick video- what do you think? Does it need more?
