steering runs..

[DeadManWalking]

hey y'all. need some help from those experienced from this. My car don have power steering. When i turn to the right and steer back straight, the steering is not centered, need to turn left a little then only centered. this goes same the opposite direction. some say need to change rubber pad/bush at the allignment bolt/nut. is it true? is there any rubber bush/pad from the steering itself and all the way out to thee wheels? Please.. sakit kepala..

erm, check your steering system, the whole thing, might be got problem already at the joints, either lose or something, cause sometimes after long use, wear and tear, or maybe your steering system become like bus and lorry wan steering wan, veyrhard to centre :P ekekke, JK JK....but please do check your whole assambly, those rubber pads and bushing are mostly for absorbing the shakes and rattles when you are driving, nothing much to do with centreing of your steering :D but sometimes, if your car is old, might have that problem too :D

yup, true.. its due to worn steering mounting bushes.. normally the workshop will out some padding (ussually tube layer) to tighten it back.. could also be tie end rod but not ussualy the case..
