When I put in the lower bushing Part 31 that you make reference to I put it in and made sure that it was raise up enough to clear the lower collar on the stearing shaft. Where I made the shim was placing it around the lower collar on the stearing shaft. It is a little larger in dia. than the part of the shaft that would fit up into where the thrust washer and bearing goes into the lower bushing. That collar is about a 1/2 inch in height and I made a bushing or shim for lack of a better term and placed it around that 1/2 inch collar part of the shaft and then placed the entire shaft back in the lower bushing unit. It all fit well and after replacing it there was no sloppy movement of shaft. Don't know if I made it to tight or what. Maybe to tight, so that is why stears hard. I did make sure that it was greased for ease of movement. When I tighenen the castle nut on sector gear,noting that it didn't tighten as much as it did before I placed the shim in the lower bushing. I was able to get the cotter pin in the castle nut. I think maybe that is where the tighness comes from. Your comments are appreciated.

The warm glow of yellowish light can be seen for quite some distance at dusk, and
