    Steering wheel shake

    I finally got rid of the really bad steering wheel shake. All it took was the replacement of all the suspension bushes, a wheel alignment and the steering damper. Now the old girl rides smoothly.

    When I first bought mine, I had a shake only if over 80km/h and if just hit a slight bump in the road.
    A new steeering dampner fixed it straight away.

    Which has probably masked the real problem. Swivel preload!

    I had full check over from a very reputable LR mechanic here in Adelaide when I bought it plus an RAA pre purchase inspection. Its not shown up in either of these so I'd hope theres no pre load issues....

    I'd say I'd have had more problem in the last year and half if there were?

    Unless they disconnected the track rod and drag link in the check they would not have found it.

    I would suggest you check it.
