Questions: I have an M38 and bought a new sector shaft. When I installed and torqued the original Pittmann arm, it only engaged 1/2 of the indexing grooves leaving no room for a lock washer with adequate nut threads. Any suggestions?

They have to go on very tight. Please give us a call toll free to help out.

Questions: What do you recommend for end play on a new sector shaft with a new worm on an M38?
Question By: Gary L Carlson on Apr 5 2021 8:34 PM
I dont think the book really gives a spec on that. Your sector shaft and bushings should be tight in there with little to no slop.

Questions: upon disassembly I noticed, underneath the lower bearing there is a "cap" on the bottom of the steering box with a hole in the center from my understanding that is for the horn wires. inside the shaft the horn rod is still there. im not concerned with running a horn however is there a seal that will keep the oil from leaking out of that bottom cover hole? how do I remove this "cap" and do you have a replacement? originally it had grease in it so leaking was not an issue, however upon rebuild id like to run oil.

You need to use a freeze plug on. Or we can get you a good used one.

Questions: best way to remove old bushings? I cant get mine to budge
Question By: jason on Mar 11 2017 1:14 AM
You will want to take a socket the same size the bushing and press it out in a vise.
Answer By: Willys Jeep Parts Tech on Mar 13 2017 5:53 AM
What also works well is to split the bushing in half by cutting through it on one side with a metal sawzall blade.
