Hi,
Before I start randomly pulling components out of my car and replacing them is there an easy way to tell which component has cratered and pull it first?
My steering was getting a bit stiff over the last few weeks but it always felt stiff so I didn't really notice much difference until it suddenly just quit. If I am rolling it turns using Armstrong power steering but it seems to bind up. There is lots of fluid, no leaks, no obnoxious noise, the belt is tight. Maybe the problem is in the front end components? Everything is well greased. Any ideas to get me started?
I have a complete rebuilt P/S system that only needs an o-ring clip retainer for the pump shaft (must have lost it when I pulled it apart 20 years ago) before I can install the pump. The controller and ram are ready to install.
Thanks for any advice.
