The job or work whatever thing it might be, it would be rewarded if any result could be obtained no matter how it might be difficult to accomplish enough. Thinking work or body muscle one do not matter.
It's very tiresome way to spend my own time just with do nothing, some obsession by external factor do not make me feel so, but my own internal desire that spring up makes it. Some period of time with doing nothing may be necessary for human being, the activity in our brain is not always resting, it is proved by the researchers in Functional Brain Science. So, doing something actually and obtaining the result, not as a mere experience but as the truth and fact that is proved Scientifically based on Datum Analysis, I recommend the best way to avoid aging for Geriatric.
Sitting in front of TV with laughing on trifle ordinary matter that is scattering rumors uncertain pseudo information, this is my hatred situation at all. I make it a rule not to watch TV except weekly weather forecast. Especially, distorted opinion or propaganda by external neighbor's couturiers are prevailing in our country recently.
I prioritize communication by my own decision over one way broadcasting, any information should be gathered only by a personal choice, please avoid any brainwashing by the others including unintentional picture insertion among the programs, so to speak Subliminal Effect.

Worm & sector steering gear box is equipped in my VW Air-cooled Beetle 1302, not Rack & pinion.
Because of keeping lubricant thin layer on slipping surface, gear backlash of former is wider than the latter if compared. Physical construction does so, then the former one is inferior to the latter?
Most of the recent steering gear box is so designed as Rack & Pinion style with power assist?
Careful checking on the steering construction in my Beetle, small but effective steering dumper is connected with controlling arm, this is nothing but the buffer to avoid the shock, vibration and waving including keeping the steering position at the position, so to speak keeping the stability at the same time. Also, small rubber shock buffers are connected in the construction, a fluffy idler arm too.
The construction and buffer parts are designed, tried so many times and decided by the factory engineers, probably their great endeavor should be above words and our imagination.
Even a changing the rubber part with different physical property later by an user must appear disguise completely spoiling the best balanced condition at all, this is why I insist on replacing any parts into genuine ones in stead of the third party products.
The final production is the result of the best efforts to the bleed by the production company at that time. The workmanship by the engineers should be respected without any argument, however old story it might be.
So, it is no use to judge the mechanical part only, steering gear box comparison, because the vehicle's taste of ride should be defined as the whole machinery total balance as a matter of fact.

Because of a fine day today, I went out for a test drive for VW Air-cooled Beetle 1302 running 150 km distance in total including half high way run. Wheel alignment for her had been accomplished especially on Thrust angle yesterday, I wanted to to know the result. The destination was Uzurano Air- Field situated at Kasai city in Hyogo prefecture.
The place has so sad history as to remind me of last WW2, not a few suicide military airplanes had took off there and the young pilot never returned. They were victims to continue next generation, naturally I gathered together in front of the Memorial Monument.
The place exists near the Hokkeguchi station on Hojo Railroad and Old temple is near the place showing the way. I make it a rule the place twice a year to purify my heart remembering the past, over 70 years ago.
The result of the test driving was favorable at all including high way run. Only a little steering adjustment was required to keep the straight direction and turning phase is very natural on both side. The center fixation phenomena appears once Thrust is removed, vulnerability of steering gear box mounting has very little to do.

Thrust angle adjustment was successfully performed today on VW Air-cooled Beetle 1302.
Simple concept of triangle similarity with trigonometric symptom made it possible to calculate the adjusting distance on the rear right side trailing arm. 3.10 mm extension was the data obtained as a matter of fact. Trailing arm supporting point is important, at the position of the end of clumping point, not the external solid part, otherwise rear moving arm will goes up and the vehicles height becomes lower.
Naturally, Steering center position changes after thrust angle adjustment, because the former discrepancy on the thrust is compensated by front toe directional vector.
It was lucky the steering was re-positioned at the centric position by sifting one spline tooth.
My work these days are trifle I recommend so, but piled trifles is not always trifle, it merely be nothing but self contentment.
Recently, any vehicle user cannot enter the IA controlled system, so the adjustment I did is the only way to have some relation with the vehicle to being kind. Any machinery production contains the tolerance, so to speak "Range of specific error", I wanna make the assembly error zero as much as I can.
VW Golf GTI that my son is using has thrust angle error, within the tolerance plus minus 10 minutes, and he is going to sell it in the near future. 5 years use with only 25,000 km run at less than half price of purchase. His intention might be changed if I adjust the thrust error to zero? Or I would like to use it instead of him.
Anyway, as keeping a vehicle wastes money, so my Xanthippe says with mustache about that. Thunder always comes on me after a sincere comfort.

I'm falling in muscle work these 3 days and I've some difficulty to change clothes because of muscle pain, arm, shoulder and back.
The blush replacing procedure on TOYOT Caldina AZT-241W was performed the day before yesterday with much suffer, as the serpentine belt tensioner was replaced at the same time, too long hinge movement center bolt required lateral engine mount removal including crank pulley pulling out work. It took me one day and a half to complete the work. The first experience take long time always.
Because I felt bad handling reaction, front right side camber pull phenomena, checked I front axle constructions on my way back home from Hyogo Transport Branch in Kobe.
Right side positive camber and the left side had too much negative inclination.
As we know, camber setting and toe direction correction should be done at the same time, they have inter active relations each other, in addition, vehicle must be moved front and rear side on every scaling and adjustment, this trifle step is indispensable in order to release the tread surface stress, keen concentration and patience are necessary, they are very complicated and boring at all.
To tell the truth, I had neglected to fix front camber precisely, there is nothing as reliable as measure, just watching without precision device.
Consequently, I payed the attachment today, all day long.
By the way, I made camber gauge by myself, a primitive mechanical scaling device based on Pendulum principle with 1719.75 mm radius reading the inclining value 2 minutes/1 mm. Although it is childish, it has far better accuracy than the ordinary bubble position reading type.
On the other hand, horizontal scaling is a modified level scale with LASER pointer. The accuracy is above some professional wheel alignment tester.
As front axle adjustment is over today, I have to proceed "Thrust angle setting" tomorrow, though European Safety Standard prescribes, the angle should not exceed plus minus 10 minutes, I have strong will to make it zero degree. Minus thrust angle is apparent by the wheel surface line of sight measurement method, let's see what will happen.
