Where does the shim go for the drag link cup and the steering gear (pitman arm) ball belong. Does it go on the drag link side or the ball cap side. Does it matter?
I just file the end of the drag link, until I get a nice fit, and then put in wheel bearing grease. Works for me. If you pitman arm is worn too much, get another.
It doesn't matter which side of the ball you put President Lincoln on.
