steering box adjustment

This is out of the FSM, hope it helps.

Adjustments
Two adjustments are provided in the steering gear
(Fig. 2). The worm bearing pre-load adjustment, and
the ball nut rack sector gear mesh adjustment.
Before the correct adjustment can be made at the
ball nut rack and the sector gear, it must be determined
that the worm bearing pre-load is properly
adjusted.
The worm bearing pre-load adjustment is controlled
by the worm thrust bearing adjuster which
threads into the housing at the upper end of the
wormshaft.

gear teeth.
