So, brakes are done, wheels are polished, awning, water pump fixed, etc, etc.

My 2 bigger issues now are the oil cooler lines, and the 2-3 inches of play in the steering wheel.

I posted a picture of the oil lines in an earlier post, just so everyone knows what the photo was of I will post it again.

That play in the wheel is definitely the steering box, as I had Tina rock the wheel side to side and the pitman arm did not move.

Question #1. Where do I source new oil cooler lines.....?

Question #2. Is there a way to adjust the steering box without having to send it out for rebuild.....?
