lynn, box is tight on the bracket and I put in a new self aligning bearing on the bottom, so it is just a matter of selecting the required shim thickness to eliminate the worm shaft end float when the four bolt seal housing is tightened up?. Not sure if the Canadian ford manual has info on setting up the correct float?. Seems to be ok and not squeaking at the moment but is a little tight so will perhaps add in a thou shim when i change the seal.

kev.
