はじめに
A loose steering box can be dangerous, especially when trying to stay in a lane on a windy highway. There are a number of components in the steering system that can wear, and cause play in the steering wheel. Before assuming its the steering box causing looseness, lie under the front of the car and have a friend move the wheel back and forth in the range of play. If the arm on the steering box does not move back and forth, then it is internal wear, so continue with the procedure.

I have over tighten the steering box. I have loosen the box all the way ,but it steel stick
This procedure skips several important steps, including setting the preload prior to adjusting the lash screw. Hint - you need a torque wrench to do it correctly. It's also advisable to check all the steering components, especially the pitman arm bushing, as the cause of steering play before blaming the steering box. I've seen several steering boxes ruined by over tightening the lash screw when the box wasn't even the problem to begin with.
