Hey all,
Several weeks ago I dropped a kingpin, shattered my axle housing etc coming back from a hunting trip.
During this repair process I overhauled both front axles bearings etc, and also have rebuilt the brakes, as when I dropped a kingpin, the vehicle smoked its ass off from what im guessing was gearbox fluid hitting the hot components, I also burnt out my brake fluid and ran them dry hence the rebuild.
Now I have it all fixed, the brakes work great, new discs etc, The wheels spin freely, And smooth etc. But.... all of a sudden, since being parked up after breaking down etc I have a loss of power down low, When i am in full steering lock, its whining quite badly and it almost stalls the engine. After looking at the power steering fluid, it is low.
Does anyone have any ideas? even towing my boat, It feels like the boats brakes are on constantly.
thanks, help, please!!
save me!!!
