    wobbly wheel

    My steering wheel has play, it moves left to right and up and down I changed the uj wich connects the column to the rack last year so I no its not that, I have been searching the forum and found it could be top column bush so looked on gt turbo spares and cgb for the bush but can only find a 'bearing' is this the part I need ? If someone could give me a link or a actuall picture of the bush I would be more than grateful, dont want to buy the wrong part. Thanks for looking

    It sounds like the bearings. There's one at the top just behind the steering wheel and one further down.

    When you take it out try not to loose any broken off metal spines down the column as they get caught in the steering lock.

    Re: wobbly wheel

    I bought one the other day, but when I went to fit it my old one was fine just had popped out so I pushed It back in then pushed the other new one in too lol 2 fits perfectly. I thought it might strengthen it up a little while im hanging on it to get in and out with the roll cage.
