That doesn't sound good, just to try I locked up my rear diff on the road and in addition to having no steering the back end 'hops' on tight corners, it could be a diff that's causing it and/or busting the CV joints.

H:
anyone know if the rear steering arm should be perfectly straight our bend up a little after the steering damper mount (running from n/s to o/s)

H

Range Rover Blues:
You mean the track rod that connects the left and right wheels don't you? it should be straight.

H:
yup thats the one, looks like I bent it slightly at Whitworth then, and its ducked my wheels  so that they are driving along like \----o--/  (diagram exagerated) I'll straighten it and get it tracked once I get her back together  tonight hopefully that will solve my woes, recon the latest CV went (hadnt gone completly was just notchy) due me rushing, when I stripped down the swivel housing last night I found fragments of the previous one in the grease. Gonna change my steering damper too as that looks like its taken a battering.

H

Range Rover Blues:
Fingers crossed for you then, let's hope that fixes it for good.
