steering

[sparkyaj]

OK follow up from last night. wheels are not catching any where.

turn steering on full lock and the steering wheel wobbles and shakes on full lock. squeeks too?

any thoughts?

[Sancho]

you did the bump stops already?

Could be your power steering pump is a bit loose mate - mine messes around now an then.

just change the belt an tension it all up as usual! see if that helps.

[sparkyaj]

how do i do that? is it just a case of taking up the slack?

thanks

steering works fine when you are driving. just funny on tight full lock

everything your saying is exactly what i had with mine when it was/is being dodgy.

Yeah, just take up the slack - if your going to be messing around with it you may aswell change the belt. Its only a few quid - an if your current belt is a bit... f**ked then it wont hurt changing it

[sparkyaj]

forgive me, is that the same belt that drives the ac unit?

just wondering if thats why my one is not cold. expect its the gass though. horrid r12.

[RodLeach]

Afraid its not the same belt mate..

Dont know if you have a 2.4 or a 3.0 but on the 2.4 the belt is right at the bottom on the right hand side as you face the truck, the AC belt is on the upper left...

hope im not teachin you to suck eggs or anything!

[sparkyaj]

not at all. never played with belts on these before. played with 4wd air switches and norm wiring etc....

Thanks for the advise
