time for taper roller then.
Following Bibio's succinct advice, I've finally got around to replacing the steering bearings. The job wasn't actually as much of a pain as I'd feared.
The adjustment process in the handbook looks a bit hit and miss .. tighten to the specified torque, then back off by 1/4 - 1/2 a turn. I'm always aware that it's easy to over tighten new bearings, so just wondered whether any on the forum have come up with an improved method for setting the adjustment.
Ta in advance,
Tony S
