    Power Steering box turns hard left when steering wheel released - yikes!

    Sorry. I don't have much to offer. We bought the car in ~ 2016 from a guy who was the master of half-a$$ed repairs, but don't get me started.............. maybe I'll post what I found on one area of the car in the thread I started a while back about refurbishing grills / grilles. When we took...

    You have a sharp eye. I installed the "wrong" fitting because I had the wrong replacement easily at hand. I now have the correct fitting, and will re-install. Be well.

    Power Steering box turns hard left when steering wheel released - yikes!

    Success! I moved it left and right (as viewed when I leaned over the fender) and found a spot where the steering was neutral. It blows my mind that 1/8" or less makes a difference. Thanks to all who contributed to my education.

    Power Steering box turns hard left when steering wheel released - yikes!

    I have a 69 "Cuda 383 that has a rebuilt power steering box. The steering box was rebuilt and unused for ~ 3 years before install and use. Once in use it demonstrated a built in permanent left turn to the steering stop. If the steering wheel is not held static, the wheels turn hard left and stay...
