Just rebuilt my Bendix PS box... adjustments?

[bigdaveb12]

I just finished rebuilding my Bendix PS box on my '67 F-100. I noticed that there are at least three places to make adjustments on this gearbox. If you look at the Bendix PS diagram, http://www.fordification.com/images/sch ... _small.jpg, you will see parts 372896-S, 373430-S, 3D772, and the allen keyed screw associated with 3D770. My question is what adjustments, if any, need to be made to the rebuilt steering box and what am I looking for in these adjustments?

Of course, the rebuild kit I got from NPD had no instructions and I've spent the last 2 hours trying to find info on any adjusting screws. If anybody has any ideas, I'd love to hear them.

the adjustment i know about mess the gears closer togther to make the steering tighter. i haven't ever tried it but it is supposed to work.

Here's the info out of the '68 shop manual. Warning, big scans (>300K)
