Mad Man Measures Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 I have a little issue with my steering. I know what the problem is just not how to fix it. There is a bit of play in the near side front wheel it moves about 1/8" side to side. I took it to a mechanics a while back an he said it was a loose nut an tightened it but the problem didn’t go away, I have also had new wish bones as there was a problem with them but I still have the same problem There would appear to be nothing wrong with the track rod ends or the arb bushes. There is a bit of movement in the drive shaft but there is the same movement in the off side drive shaft an there is no play in that wheel. When I move the wheel from side to side the whole hub moves so it is unlikely to be the bearing Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
