I have an 1988 Maxum (Bayliner) with rack and pinion steering that is a little sloppy. I know I can add a bushing of some sort to tighten things up at the transom, but is there any way to adjust/tighten the actual rack part of things?
It's play in the steering wheel. I looked and it's about 3/16 - 1/4 inch at the end of the steering arm. The steering arm through to the gimbal housing seems ok. I'll probably just put a bushing at th eend of the cable to tighten that up and call it a day. I'm just picky and it'd be nice to have it tighter.
