steering box worm bearing adjuster

[fcdunedin]

FE -HR GM part number 7409402 i was offered this part on NZ auction site would this be of much use to help improve ''free play" in steering wheel as described by inspector at road worthy(warrant of fitness in NZ) dept.He said he wont fail me this time but would like to see an improvement next time (6 mnths away).Any advice would be appreciated thanks. This is nos as well.

Probably wouldn't hurt to have it, but if you still have a stock FE FC front end and steering set up

I would be having a look at the drag link as well as the steering box to see if the slop in the steering is coming from there, you can tighten them up a little or put through a new (rare spares) kit

Though you will need a wheel alignment afterwards
