Well I finally got it finished to the point that I could free up my garage and take it to my camp. I drove it the five miles and it was one scarey drive. The steering is so loose that I spent most of my time glued to the wheel and making adjustments. I don't believe that it is the spindles or tie rods as they all seem acceptably tight. I also note that when riding around the farm I sometimes hear and feel a "clunk" in the front end. Any ideas??? I have power steering.

Could be worn U joints in the linkage between the steering wheel and front end. Does the steering wheel move a lot when the tractor is shut off and not moving?
