[Healeys] Steering Gear Adjustment

[Ricchardd Mayor]

Make a very small adjustment in the direction that you want go, check the play in your steering wheel, and then drive the car to see how it feels. Keep doing that until you get it where you want it. No need to disconnect anything or jack anything up. Unless you really want to.
