Has anyone rebuilt the Steering on Super H? I had experienced a considerable amount of "Shimmy" in steering, so I tore it down. Replaced the upper and lower bushing. Replaced lower bearing and bearing on the worm gear for the steering shaft. Also replaced grease seal that the I and T suggest. After got it back together and lower bolster put back on, I could still move the bolster from side to side about 1/8th inch. So I removed Steering shaft and mic'ed the bottom collar and found out that was where the play was. I made a shim from the old bushing to go on the lower collar and replaced it. It took all the play out of the it, however it is pretty hard to steer. It really drives nice without the previous "Shimmy", but it steers harder than what it did. I'm assuming that the thing will loosen up some after I drive it for a while. Just wondering if anyone else has done the same and what the results were. Comments would be appreciated.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
