I need some help with my steering and thanks to Dan I think I'm now posting in the proper area of the board. The steering wheel has about 4 inches of play in it setting in Park with the engine off. Pretty squirrelly to drive at high speeds. This is a '64 Valiant Signet 200 convertable with power steering. I've ordered the shop manual for my car but until it arrives;
How do I take this slop out? Is it the adjustment nut on top of the p/s gearbox? Is there somewhere else to make an adjustment?
Thanks in advance for all your help.

Make sure all your steering linkage components are in good condition, and see this thread for info on adjusting the steering box.

Too many people who were born on third base actually believe they've hit a triple.

definitly check all the linkage. my idler arm was so slopping when I bought my 64 that the centerlink went up and hit the oil pan before moving laterally. adjusting the box only does so much on a 40+ year old car. call up firm feel and get a rebuilt one or rebuild it yourself.
