Hi folks, does anyone happen to know the cause a noise that has developed in my front end after a trip to the Flinders Ranges (very dusty roads and lots of vibration).
At low speed when I turn to full lock either going forward or backwards (such as backing out of my garage and turning to go up the driveway) I get a series of clunks for as long as the wheels are moving to their full lock.
Initially I thought it might have been my Bushskinz moving against their mounts, but I now think there is not likely to be enough force on the plates while turning at low speed on a smooth surface.
Is there a steering knuckle/joint somewhere that I should lube, or are my spings binding then jumping? I'm hoping that the steering box isn't loose or malfunctioning, but I suspect not as there is no noise during high speed turning.
Any ideas for diagnosis or rectification would be appreciated!
