Hi all im wondering if you can help my mate, hes bought my old dturbo off a friend who had a bump up a kerb-curb at 30mph drivers side, the car now has quite a lot of play in the steering and i can see the track rod arm is slightly bent, so you think the steering rack could be damaged at all? i cant think of anything else it could be other than rack!cheers! |

Usually if it's not in the joints then it's in the knuckle on the lower steering column rather than the rack itself.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Is the knuckle replaceable? or does the whole column need to be changed? I think mines got play in it (it's been commented on in the last MOT) and it does feel a little vague and wanders a little (the track rod ends need changing too) and I plan on doing some work on the car soon whilst its off the road.________________________________________ When I've got time I forget what I wanted to do, and when I remember what I wanted to do, I have no time! |
