I had someone put in the Randy Gross steering box. Now the spark advance lever only goes fully retarded and only half way to advanced..I read somewhere that it can be adjusted but can't find it...Anyone know how to do this? thank, david
 
Short answer..........Loosen the clamp where the column slips over the steering box and rotate accordingly.
 
You'll have to loosen the clamp on the column inside the cabin also.

This adjustment is pretty critical. The arm on the advance plate needs to to travel fully (stop to stop) in the notch in the distributor body when hooked to the linkage and using the lever on the column.

If you paid someone to install the steering column I'd have them finish the job, and/or be on the lookout for other things they did wrong.
 
Thanks for the help. Dick your right on checking for other issues. Lights and horn work so we'll go from there.
 
Can the pieces on the end of rods that the shafts attach be put on wrong or do they only go on one way?
