Need some advise/help concerning 914 tie rods
Car:1974 Porsche 914 1.8l Concern needing help: driving the other day and notice a “new noise” coming from the left front wheel. Only occurs when making a right turn. I immediately suspect wheel bearing. I bring it home , raise the wheel and jostle the wheel for free play. There is none. But I do hear a “clunking” noise when attempting to move the wheel. The source of the noise is on the left tieRod at the fork to the steering rack. So I put the car on the lift and compare the left side to the right side. I also consult the Hayes Manual. The manual indicate both right and left side tieRod fork to steering rack to be in a lateral orientation. I notice on my care the left is in a vertical position and the right is in a lateral position. I would think the left side is experiencing significant stress at this union. How do I correct/position the left side tieRod fork to steering rack union? Or doesn’t it matter )I don’t think so. See attached pics. 1st pic is the left side, 2nd is the right side. Thanks in advance.  |
