I have a 48 chev 1 ton panel and I have about 1/4 turn free play in steering wheel. Maybe a little less. I know there should be a way to take that out. I think everything under is tight.
Thanks

Have you done the adjustments described in the Shop Manual? A cheap spring scale is often available in Walmart and/or K-Mart.

I can vouch for doing the procedure as described in the manual. It's not very difficult and is well worth it.
