hi guys
I need second opinion from someone who did steering refurb
it all started with 'loose' feeling at the wheel, wheelspin when accelerating and slight lack of control at speed
issue was duly identified as steering rack internals worn to irrepairable
pulled the spare steering rack out of the stash, and got it refurbished (new rack bearings, new rubber, nicely greased)
even got hands on brand new old stock power steering cylinder for a symbolic price
fitted everything
wheel tracking done
'loose' feeling gone, wheelspin gone, full control is back
but:
between 11' and 13' o clock position steering feels kind of 'overtightened'
and it doesn't self center to 12' o clock, kind of stops few degs fore 12'
no need to mention, I do not like it
is this a kind of 'new part needing running-in' conflict?
will this go away after a period of 'running in'?
forgot to mention, I'm running 309 wishbones
maybe this is connected?
but the old 'loose' rack did center itself.
any similar experience?
thanks!
