[QUOTE="Moseley, post: 613596, member: 20098"] It should be fairly easy to see where your play is coming from, given the amount you’re seeing. I would jack the front up, then lower the front wheels onto some chocks (to give the steering system some resistance), that way you can get underneath it and inspect it all whilst someone turns the steering wheel from side to side. The most common cause of play is the steering boxes in these. No amount of adjustment to the peg will account for the slack that has built up between the worm and peg. Personally, I’d get your loose bolt sorted and then drive it again, this could well be causing the majority of your issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
