Dual Wheels 2 #1 Posted July 20, 2008 Had a little slop in the steering on a C 120 I was playing with Found this Replaced it with this Now it works alot better...and yes TT I knew where the part was...Didn't have to search..(much) All ready to go again :banana: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
proshop 0 #2 Posted July 20, 2008 I have a B-100 and have the same problem. someone had tried to weld it back up and it broke again, so now that I have the machine im going to use a nickle rod to weld it up. this should help prevent any further cracking or breaking B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,162 #3 Posted July 20, 2008 There are way too many good used lower steering supports floating around to even justify trying to weld a broken one. You aren't afraid of ebay are you? If someone on here doesn't have one you can buy, you can find them on there pretty cheap. Norm..... great job, and that's a good lookin' C! Definitely a lot more room to work on that one than the 312 I just fixed. B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,033 #4 Posted July 20, 2008 I've had a few look like that, and seen some welded, but like TT said easier to change it, and at that time, put some anti seize on the lower shaft where it is not greaseable, and I get 3/4" shim washers from TSC and take up the slop in the steering to help the gears mesh better.

Curmudgeon 28 #5 Posted July 20, 2008 I should have some around somewhere, but unlike TT, I WOULD have to do some looking.. throw in the fact they are in a now somewhat less than convenient location and the time to find one would expand into days......

kj4kicks 154 #6 Posted July 20, 2008 Wow, that one was tore up! Bet it steers like a new one now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
