Was wondering why my 40 had full steering travel to the right/ not left.
BDS says if your drag link contacts the shock, 'bend it'. I carefully bent it, slowwly, with a hydraulic press-
weeeel, I found out today why it felt wierd- Cruisergreg was watching while I cranked the wheel, and it was apparent that the drag link was bent like a fish hook, I got out and it was SCARY! cut the drag link with a sawZall ( trust me on this) and will order one later.
Thinking of getting gas shocks to mount upside down/
Any-one seen this before?
