I just did the adjustment on my '56 last week. For years I have put up with sloppy steering and finally got around to it. What a difference. Also the steering wheel was hard to turn compared to my Suburban. I attributed it to the short fat tires. Nope. It was the box being out of adjustment.

Correct it doesn't drive like a modern car. But it drives like a sweet old truck should now.
