I was changing the bottom bearing, new gaskets and adding new thicker grease, from Moss, in my steering box. I replaced the bearing, added the shims back in, new grease and a new gasket. I then removed the top plate, added new grease before I replaced the top cover with a new gasket. Then I apparently made a BIG mistake. I thought if I slowly moved the steering wheel back and forth it would distribute the grease and i could add some more. As I moved the wheel, the box locked up tight. I could not move the wheels. Then I realized that the cover apparently get the shaft peg in the cam grove by keeping the Rocker Shaft from rising to far. I thought if I removed the large nut from the Rocker Shaft I could raise the shaft and get the peg on the shaft back into the right cam grove.
Nothing has worked so far. I am going to remove the bottom cover now along with the shims and bearing. I am hoping the slack in the cam might unlock whatever is jammed in there.
