There used to be a clunk each time i would go over a small pothole etc and the sound would come from the steering it self as if some thing is broken inside , My mechanic said its coming from the steering rack and he opened it up , The rubber bushings inside were shot he replaced those with OEM bushings and now the steering feels quite hard he said you have to drive it a bit for it to become normal again .
I was told that some Diesel Variants LC 80 have a motor attached to the steering rack or some thing , could it be they forgot to re attach the wires etc .
some help would be appreciated as to dial down the cause of this hard steering wheel .
the power steering was working as normal before the bushes were changed - the power steering oil level is okay as well .no leaks , the belts are also fine .
