These Cars are in good condi AUTOMOBILE TOPS RECOVERED JAS. W. JUDSON THE DAILY BRITISH Readjusting The Drag-Link Don't Let Steering Activn Become Too Shaxy EXCESSIVE LOST MOTION at the steering wheel is quita likely to be caused by loss of adjustment due to wear at the drag-iink (steering connection rod). This rod usually has a balland-socket joint, where it attaches to the arm of the steering device and another where it is fas- tened to the linkage at one of the front wheels (usually the right).. The sockets of these two joints are at the ends of the drag-link and are adjustable to grasp the balls provided upon the parts which they con- aect. By having someone turn the steering wheel to and fro, one can readliy tell whether there is lost motion at these two points and If there is, the 'screw-plug which closes the end of the rod should be removed, the ball freed, ail parts including the buffer-spring and ball- eocket removed, cleaned and covered with fresh grease, replaced and the screw plug put back and set up tightly enongh so that. there is no lost motion. The clamp or other device, which locks the screw plug, should be set up securely. These parts are usually covered with a leather boot, which should be cleaned and supplied with fresh grease before being put back. Careful adjustment of both ends of the drag-link should remove considerable lost motion and prevent annoying rattling, but if there is still looseness in the gear, it is probably occasioned by wear of the steering spindle pivot-pins or their bushings, or of the clevis-pins which fasten the tie-rod to the steering arms of the two spindles. New pins and bushings are the only remedy under these circumstances.
