Steering Column?

[blwn31]

I have a couple of questions. I have a B20, the steering wheel wobbles. The tractor steers great, just when using the tractor going over uneven ground your hanging onto the wheel and it's just wobbling along. I pulled the rubber bushing out of the top of the column, looks to be worn. Is there supposed to be any kind of metal bushing inside the rubber seal/bushing? I want to replace the rubber seal/bushing, will this tighten up the wheel wobble? Also, the column is full of what looks like dirty motor oil. Should anything be in there? Unfortunately, Automotive, and now Tractor manuals for me at least, are not real good. I guess after using Aircraft Manuals all these years, I am spoiled. Nothing compares. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi blwn31, I don't know about the oil in the steering column , I am not familiar with your tractor. But I would be checking all of the steering joints. If one is loose it can cause things like that. Dusty

All the steering joints are good, I'm talking about what's under the steering wheel. My steering is tight, it's just the steering wheel wobbles/pivots like it's loose, which it's not.
