Three part question,
1. My 59 BT7 can (not always but frequently) be a nuisance to put into second or first gears either from third to second or neutral to first or second. It grinds horribly at times. I would love to have a smooth transmission in these gears. I have already added Redline MT90 oil.
What are my best options? Spare no ideas from costly to economical.
2. My steering wheel externally is a bit loose. How can I snug up the steering column. I can seem to removen the horn and blinker contraption without breaking it.
3. My car hugs the road well, but when every I traverse rough or slightly bumpy pavement it shakes and feels as though there is something loose. On a smooth road it will laterally hold its own with the best of them but something may be worn out up front. It is an original car with 25,000 miles. I am in a very small town otherwise I would have a mechanic answer this question for me. I wondered if this type of clatter/rattle/shake is common.
