Hi Guys,

I'm new to Landyzone, although I follow the craic...I have 2 discovery 2's and a series 2a for my sins, I'm not a machine head at all and changing the brake pads is a massive achievement for me and gives me a great sense of satisfaction. My series 2a has been MOT'd as a failure I have rectified most of the problems but still have play on the steering wheel...brakes have all been done etc...any ideas? am I looking at anew steering box? I do 500 mile per year in her tops.
