Title: steering
Post by: VR6_ROB on 23 May 2005, 23:26

i was drivin home from whitby tonite and nearly put car in a ditch
because when i turned it was fine then all of a sudden it threw me
into the side did it a few times and when i went over a cattle grid
i ended up on otherside of the road

on saturday i got a gearbox fitted n driveshafts were undone n everything
could summat not be tight???

oh and summat seems to clunk when im in reverse just settin off
or when i take my foot off the gas

cheers

gearbox mount was not tightened up
and as for steering
3 bolts were loose connectin the bottom arm to the wheel
