    Help please d2 steering

    Turning right the steering feels like it's resisting the wheel and doesn't come back to centre without help. Listening there are distinct 'clicks' which seem to be coming from the uni on the steering column. I'll be in Brissie tomorrow, can anyone help or advise a good mechanic please

    Also check the steering links for bend at the front axle, and particularly where the tie rod passes under the diff.
    Cheers

    cant help with a mechanic but it will most likley be the uni's in the steering shaft, the bit between the fire wall and the PS box.
    mine died a few months ago i had the same symptoms.

    A big thankyou guys, took the car to Ricks 4wd, he had a quick look and a drive and as expected, the diagnosis from AULRO memebers was correct
    Rick got eh shaft and uni in the following day and we were on our way in an hour. Great service and pretty reasonable really. The shaft from LR was $296 and an hours labour. The car feels soooo much better, that top uni was absolutely knackered
