When I put the top plate on and tightened it down, the steering rack is not as free. I think it needs a shim in there to keep the top plate off of it. Just not sure if there is one somewhere in the kit or if I should pick some up today before continuing tonight.
I had the same problem, the kit doesn't come with anything. I used a clutch shim but make sure it's a very thin shim because if it's too thick you'll have some play on the post, it will move up and down causing some slop in the ackerman transfering it to the wheel.
