How many balls in a Saginaw 525 box?
Posted: Thu Jul 06, 2017 8:50 pm
I'm rebuilding my steering box as per the walkthrough in the tech section. When I disassembled it I counted 50 balls, just like the one in the tech section, but there's a sizeable gap in the ball tubes when I reassemble it. Enough room for another ball or two per channel. I've reassembled the ballnut 4 or 5 times and each time it's the same.
Is that normal? Should I continue to add balls until there isn't room for another one, or is the gap intentional for some reason?
