Hey gang,
Thanks for all your replies to my suspension issues. I plan on dealing with that whole mess next week. Here's my next problem: After installing the strut-to-strut brace I'm extremely impressed with the handling increase, but noticed that turning the wheel has become very difficult mainly at slower speeds when turning at a light or street, etc. My rack might be on its way out, and is this an early indication? Should I flush the power steering fluid first and then see, or just live with the tightness? Could it just be from the brace stiffening the front end even more?
Thanks as always!
-Adam
