Power steering issues

(1/2) > >>

ginge:
After spending the whole weekend welding, was presented with a new prob, the steering feels like it is catching on something when turning from lock to lock. Also when coming out of a corner it will not spin back to center. Any ideas ? Pump or steering box thingi ? Thanks

beast5680:
check the uj,s on the steering column shaft to the steering box, they may be seizing up causing the fault you describe

Range Rover Blues:
If it spins back completley to centre the steering swibvels may be too loose.

I had the same problem with mine a while back ...turned out one of the UJs on the steering arm (the one behind the axle with the damper on) was rusted up and crunchy for want of a better word. also I had some pitting on the swivels that were causing the steering to be stiff/notchy. I changed the joint and used a wet stone to take off the raised bits on the swivels .. sorted

ginge:
Thanks for the response will have a good look if it ever stops rainin !!!!!

Thanks again.
