benbenukuk:
Most of the time when I turn the steering wheel I will get a loud bang/clonk from the front of the rangie and the whole front jumps when it's a big one, I have been told it's the panard rod bushes would this correct? if not any ideas? Ben

Sounds like it too me

get someone inside the car with the engine running and turn the steering wheel from lock to lock

while you look under the front of the car

you will be able to see the panard rod moving in its brackets where it joins the axle and at the chassis end

this is going to sound stupid but here goes what should I be looking for and how do I tell if a bush has gone?  :oops:

when you move the steering from side to side....

If you look where the panard rod attachs the rod will move as you move the steering wheel

hope this helps

where abouts in the world are you ben?

I'm in Kent, There is very slight movement at full lock but apart from that there is no other movement, is there anything else it could be?  Ben
