I noticed that on my TR when turning the wheel from dead center there's a slight lack of resistance. It happens both ways. It happens mainly when the car is moving.

Is this normal? Or can i tighten up the worm gear to take out the slack?
 
The bearing in the steering gear box can wear, too and result in a dead area in the steering.

I just had the box in my 2+2 rebuilt because at 160 mph I could turn the wheel slightly and the car didn't do anything (thanks to lots of caster).

Turned out to be the Box.
