Super M and 460

JH460 · Sep 17, 2010

Well we hauled the Super M to the shop the other day. She's got a stuck piston so that's our first project. The front end is loose, will replacing the worm and top gear fix this or is there more to it? I would like to get it tightened up.

We are also starting on the 460. First off is the TA. I have never done it so any tips will be gladly appreciated. I have an IT manual and a reproduced IH manual (Jen sales).

Thanks in advance.

The worm and top gear have very little to do with front end wobble. To fix that you need to replace the lower bolster bushing and possibly even have the shaft built up and turned down. If wobbling is not the problem, but there is excess play in the steering, then you might need to replace that top gear, which is available, but I know of no one who is reproducing the worm.

Carter & Gruenwald in Brodhead, WI sells a kit that comes with all the stuff. You could order it from any CNH dealer bc they are all current production parts (to the best of my knowledge)
