Brought a dc2 a few months back and have had it sat up whilst I have been fitting all my bits, took it out for its first blast yesterday and the front end is really sloppy.
The power steering has been removed and whilst driving it the 200miles home I noticed it was a little stiff but having had several with the power steering removed through various ways I didn't think anything of it. But whilst driving it feels as thou the rack is really stiff to the right and loose to the left which is fine until you come from being on right hand lock to a sharp left turn then it feels like the first initial movement does nothing and then the car lurches to the left.
I have removed one of the bolts on the rack and turned lock to lock and the smallest amount of fluid came out, which I believe is correct as your supposed to leave a little in to keep it lubricated ? There is also no signs of the rack sliding in its mounts.
Any ideas ?
