Steering, have I got a problem?

From my experience, the tracking on disco's is vital, mine dived all over the road when i first bought it, and whenever it hit a puddle it tried to change lanes....

Hmm, might get Bunnie to take her into DTS tomorrow.

burgerman:
mine seems to do all the above, But could i suggest checking the pre load on the swivel bearings ? and for play of course, also take off the steering damper and check the operation of it, i have a "good" one here if ya want it ? i took it off mine about two years ago and not  got any use for it now,   Get in touch if ya need a mechanical hand,

   Anyhow you wont be going fast enough on the plain to worry about that stuff :lol:

Disco Matt:
Check your steering box is properly centred too - mine went to ATS to have a track rod end replaced and came back with truly appalling steering that was only cured by a trip to the local franchised dealer to re-centre the box.

Mind you, I think she needs a new one now judging by the fluid dribbles! I suppose 110k over 11 years isn't a bad lifespan for a part...

Niel:
tracking, bushes, tyre pressures all effect it, still on the Rikens? They are quite  'squirmy' compared with some, running the MST's I noticed quite a difference!

lee celtic:
Mine does some of the above

just makes it more interesting :lol:
