loose steering arm on troopy

Hi Phil,

Thanks for that. Will do as instructed. I have the "Max Ellery's" vehicle repair manual, however it does not have anything reasonably simple like what you described. Nor where or how many grease nipples. It has how to take apart a diff, but that's not something I would attempt. I will scout around for a gregorys.

Just to clarify, Upon reassembly, I should tighten the slot as much as I can, and then back just over a turn. I haven't disassembled, so does this rule still apply. It has just become loose over time I guess.

I am just paranoid about steering lock up.

Thanks again...I really appreciate all your help.

Kind regards

I've got that Ellerys manual as well - some of the diagrams are good with a magnifying glass; and the text is often non-existant. The Gregory's is pretty user-friendly.

Yeah, tighten it up, then back it off between one and one and a third turns, is what the manual says, whether you've disassembled or not.

I think those joints like to be greased every 5k, and go loose if not.

Cheers
phil
