Here's a quick vid i made.
Excuse the low sound and the "Hey Nic" at the end (friend)

There is a knocking sound at the bottom of the rack at the universal joint. I can move this up and down and side to side to make the knocking sound. But at the guibo part (further up) i can only make the noise by moving it up and down?
I don't know what to do.
Problem is woolly steering at 60Mph and above- always having to correct myself when going in a straight line.


HELP.

bud all that I can make out from that vid is your elbow, a steering wheel (tech 1) a few random wobbly panning shots of bits under the bonnet. Can we have a picture please that is lit and shows the item you are trying to sort.

help us help you. :thumb:

Wherever you source the guibo from, you need the special stepped bolts to fit it with.
