And, now if the epoxy fails.... Fingers crossed and FTD on hold with the
"Get Well Soon" boquet.

Haven't wanted to jinx myself by talking about it, but now that more than 3
years have passed, I can share my epoxy fix to the worn worm gear at the end
of the steering shaft of my '79 Ford van.

I shot-blasted the worn edge of the spiral-like gear to get the best
adhesion
possible, applied a metal-repair epoxy (mail ordered from an industrial
epoxy
supplier) and hand-filed the repair to the original shape.

Son-of-a-gun worked like a charm.
