Re: (ET) Skipping steering

By removing the steering shaft from the control cabinet, yes.
The nastiest part will be removing the steering wheel from the pinion
shaft without destroying the wheel. Take some time to grind some
material from the sector shaft support, where the pinion gear rests.
This is a trial and error procedure, to ensure maximum penetration of
the pinion gear into the sector gear. While fiddling with this, it is
also a good time to adjust the sector to support clearance, again to
maximize gear tooth contact.
Hm. What do you mean by grinding material from the sector shaft support?
If the gears are rounded then they are toast, correct?
I might take another look at the sector support shims; they might be a
bit loose. And inflate the tires to full-blast. And re-grease everything.
