Hi all
Read many post regarding this but none seen to help
I have a 1988 110 station wagon
Tyres are 275 70 16
Pressure set to 40
Had her just under a year and the steering was like wizards sleeve ( very floppy )
I have changed both shaft uj's the steering damper, track rod ends and the "drop link arm and ball joint" the arm under the box
And have adjusted the box so steering still free but shaft has very minimal movement by hand
I have even changed the steering wheel to a 12"
Although there was some improment at each part changed it is still a battle to stay in a straight line and I feel possible getting worse
Motorway driving is quite a worry and even backroads are becoming a challenge now
The steering box seems ok and there are no leaks
Could it still be the box ?
Wheels have no wobble when on jacks
Could shocks and springs cause this
There are no unusual noises
Some axle grease leaking from o/s front
Car sits a little lower on o/s
Any ideas would be great as I am running out of them and now getting reluctant to use the car
Thanks for reading
