there is a bolt on the topside front of the steering box, remove it and theres a flathead screw inside "its hard to see", I believe its a standard thread "turn clockwise to tighten the steering" turn 2 turns and check " car does not need to be running since your only checking play" make sure to replace the bolt before starting car as theres allot of pressure here when the pump is turning "fluid will go everywhere"
