Mend John Deere 68 Gear

Steering trouble on my JD 68?

I'm have trouble steering my John Deere 68 Riding Mower it seems like the gear are not linking all of the time when I turn the steering wheel the front wheels don't respond.

My question is , is there any kind of an alignment where the gears are or is there a bearing /sleeve that should be replaced .

Not sure what kind of steering system they used on yours. but, pull the battery out, and look under the battery box/plate and follow the steering shaft down , some are a gear and some are just a rubber plate . On the gear ones there is a bushing and an adjustment , the plate ones , weel you have to see if that is the problem or it lies somewhere else
