I found it pretty easy to tell which way to go with the adjuster on my old box. If I screwed it down in I had about 6-8 inches of play in the wheel. Screwed all the way out I had 1-2 inches of play. (:

Levi; i am wondering the same thing?; are all steering boxes worn or all have play in them; remember to turn allen adj. COUNTER CLOCKWISE TO REMOVE PLAY!!!!; my M.B. ills. parts breakdown shows the gears meshed the other way!!; it is printed WRONG!!!!!!!; wider part of gears are on bottom, so must raise (counter clockwise) to tighten play; but TOO! much backing out will make the steering not return or feel really squirrely!! Maybe anyone have an idea of removing a bit of play by turning in Input shaft side to remove some play; i haven't tried this yet??? anyideas on this?
