    Default Railco bush adjustment question

    I've replaced the lower bearing and race and the Railco bush and the top pin. I've got it right at 14 lbs. The green bible calls for 12-14 lbs when pulling from the steering arm. As all these parts are new, should I expect this resistance to go down over time and should I go for something a little higher? This would be a bit of a pain to check again once the vehicle was all assembled as you'd have to take off the track bar and drag link.

    Limits are limits if the factory wanted more with new parts it might be "12-14lbs but 14-16lbs with new parts", the factory limits were taken into account during the design of the product, I wouldn't second guess the engineer that designed it.
