I'm a new member. My garage is filled with many Triumphs, a Datsun 240Z, and an early 1979 RX7. I need help adjusting the steering box. Can someone point me in the right direction?
THANKS! nice to be here.

Condolences for the spotty garage floor from those Triumphs. 
But then that’s one of the reasons why Datsun sold so many 240Z’s
Sorry that I’m not familiar with the 1st Generation cars but since no one else chimed in this might help:
—-> Mazda RX-7 Reference Materials
I didn’t see a 79 FSM, but there’s an 80 you can download and I got to think that will be REALLY close.
If the obvious isn’t worn...pitman, bushings, idler etc. then there should be the typical screw head secured by the nut that needs to be backed off. Careful not to go too tight. Usually you still want an inch or so free play at the wheel.
