SO, IM LOOKING FOR BAD TIERODS OR ANYTHING THAT WOULD EXPLAIN THIS PROBLEM,YESTERDAY I LIFTED THE DRIVERS FRONT TIRE LEAVING THE OTHER DOWN AND BEGAN ROCKING THE WHEEL FROM THE 9OCLOCK AND 3 O-CLOCK POSITIONS AND LEARNED THAT BOTH WERE MOVEING WITH LITTLE OR NO PLAY,THE PLAY WAS IN THE FEED BACK TO THE LOCKED STEARING WHEEL.,,,,,,SO MY QUESTION IS ,IS THIS NORMAL TO 914 RACKS OR IS MINE WORE OUT??HOW MUCH PLAY SHOULD YOU HAVE THERE?

As memtioned, check your U joint and the tie rods/rubber connections for slop. Geoff |
