  • woolly steering

    went off roading proper style today spent 3 hrs bouncing round a nuts off road track in Dungannon, the surf went places i honestly couldn't believe a very capable 4wd.

    The guys who run the centre where impressed, his opening line at the start was walk round the corners and up the hills before you drive................. B ll x to that!! never got stuck once and it was hairy with a big H.

    Next line was we will only pull you out a few times dont take the p*ss

    However steering on the way home is a bit dodgy very woolly and pulling badly to right, it wasn't that great to start with. replaced the steering idler a while ago with no real difference had wheel alignment set then too.

    Anybody any suggestions?? was told that if the balljoints are knackered it can cause wonky steering

      Your steering damper may be knackered.

          thanks guys, in particular marky for posting the thumbnail pics just what i need. Replaced the idler about 2mths ago but i've read in other threads they can go again fairly quickly. going to put new ball joints in and see waht happens process of elimination I guess!! Is "play" fairly noticeable in the other items you mention ie pitman arm etc??

          Thanks again
