Over the past couple of months or so , ive noticed that the steering has been a little vague, not as sharp as i remembered.

The boys at Tower View looked at it and to my surprise, both Top Balljoints were well past their sell by date.
Two new ones were put on and the car is transformed........

If anyone has any similar probs, check the Top Balljoints, apparently they are the most popular ones to go.

Tony if you think yours was vague i took mine into Tower view. they changed the following worn out parts

Steering rack

Track rod ends x2

Bulkhead bearing

Top ball joints x2 (and reset the camber)

And the lower UJ was loose

All the wishbone bushes for superflex ones (my request)

Needless to say the steering is now very, very tight

Believe me it was vague
