Steering strange?
Jake:
Can anyone help.
We hit hard out of a water covered hole a couple of weeks back and ever since the steerings not been right on my disco.
It steers fine to the right but only half to the left (usaul land rover steering is bad, this is ridiculous!!)
I cant see anything obvious underneth, it all looks straight but somethings clearly wrong
any thoughts or suggestions, please reply!!!
Wanderer:
Could the steering damper be damaged and it's jamming internally and stopping travel on the steering?
Undo one and of it and see if the travel comes bacl.
Or a damaged swivel?

Not got a bend in the steering ram? Is the problem when ram out or in
Range Rover Blues:
You're going to have to take things off, one at a time to isolate the damage, start with the steering damper, then try one of the balljoints, check that the steering box is still ok then check eack of the swivels. Don't assume it's the LH wheel even though it's most likely.
Jake:
I will be changing a few things around in the next couple of weeks (i'm gonna buy a decarbon steering damper and repossision it under the steering guard, dan bars or whatever their called and polybushes)
Hope fully i'll find out what's going on.
The steering damper has taken some knocks hence why i'm moving it! (changed it twice in 1 year)
Fingers crossed for that being the problem.
Any chance it could be the steering colum?
What is a swivel? (i'm still learning)
