I did that, when assembling, lined up the notches on the pinion gear with the center tooth on the shaft. There was no hydraulic fluid in it when I assembled it is it possible that it got out of time when installing onto the forklift ?
But the odd thing is it had the exact same problem before I disassembled the steering gear.
