Ok a couple weeks ago I posted here re: 300u front end issues, tie rods & ends, toe in etc. Found many small issues, fixed what I could.

This is why it will point off and can't see it from the seat. I guess the greasy slop should have been a clue. I have another unit ready to drop in. I read between the lines here that this steering system is weak and picked one up at auction.

Any advice welcome, will probably do this weekend if rainy thanks dave
