Just feels slilghty imprecises on the straights, did have some strange braking behaviour but brakes fine on very gentle bends.

What tends to go on D2 steering first please?

Pressures are OK AFAIK, will look at joints in morning.

Mainly checking if there is a favourite bit to play up

Had a look, thought not doing that today and sprayed penetrating oil over the joints.

One easy, one with nut and bolt, one really bad.
