I have a 15hp craftsman riding mower, and it will not turn to the right. When I turn it to the right I get loud clicking sound almost like the steering gear is slipping. Can I repair it or do I have to buy a new steering column?

Go to Sears Parts site at:

Enter your model number and find the parts list for the streering. You will find the p/n for the steering gear and bushing. If there is a lot of slop in the lower end of the steering shaft it may be the bushing is worn out.
