(ET) ET Steering drive shaft shims
Hi. This is my first posting, so I hope it ends up in the right place.
I had loose steering on my E15, and after looking at the steering
mechanism, could see there was too much play in the steering sector
shaft (horizontal shaft). I removed the cotter pin (roll pin in some
cases) and used two machine washers on the shaft, replaced the pin after
using graphite lubricant on the washers, and the steering is like new -
no more play. The washers I used were from Tractor Supply Company (in
one of their many parts bins), and are called 3/4 x 1¼ x 18 gauge
machine washers. You may only need one washer, but two worked perfectly
on my tractor. Good luck. Dick Green
