Work the steering wheel to see if there is binding in the rack. Then check each wheel to see if there is binding in the ball joints and trunions.

I'd first disconnect the rack tie rods from the front hubs and see if it is in the rack or one of the hubs. That will tell; /html/triumphs/2006-03/msg00703.html (8,949 bytes)

Having learned the hard way, I now check for free movement at each stage of work, including just before I in; /html/triumphs/2006-03/msg00721.html (9,103 bytes)

I did buy brand new trunnions from TRF.
