Re: [DML] MY tight steering problem!



When I read this thread I thought I had originally posted, right 
down to the wife assisting by turning the steering wheel! My U 
Joint is indeed lightly scraping against the frame. DMC Joe, could 
you briefly explain how to properly align that U joint? Should I 
loosent the bolts that grasp the ribbed shaft and then slide that?

thanks,
