<DIV>For sure you need the belleville washers, and correctly installed as well.
You need 6 of them. They act as a spring in the steering box. I've seen a
steering box that missed 3 of them, that didn't work well. <BR></DIV>
<DIV>AH Spares have them for £3,25 plus VAT. <BR></DIV>

<DIV>Unfortunately, I have no idea what the material, OD, ID, thickness, dish
or flat load are; else I would order from McMaster or other, more reasonable,
supplier.<BR></DIV>

<DIV>The Moss catalog calls for 6 'belleville' washers under the rocker
shaft in the late BN, early BN4/6 steering box (Moss part# 725-115). Mine
doesn't appear to have ever had them; anyone know if they're required? I'm
guessing yes, because otherwise the rocker shaft looks like it rests on a
rough surface but, they list for $12.79/ea, and if they're not
necessary--or if anyone knows of a cheaper alternative--I'd prefer not to
spend that much.<BR></DIV>
