Help! I have two Volvo 270 ourdrives which are suffering from the typical stiff steering syndrome! The cable has been replaced, as have the bushes in the steering fork.
Further investigations have revealed that the steering knuckle part of the intermediate outdrive is very stiff, and wont accept any more grease :-(
So far I have done all the work to the outdrives myself, but am a little bit confused how this part all comes to bits?
Could anyone help me with this? I am imagining it just needs pulling apart, all the grease and salt residue cleaning out and re assembling with new seals if there are any? Is it this simple?
I have a exploded diagram of the intermediate housing, which shows the knuckle and associated parts, but doesn't give a lot of insight to how it all come to bits.
Thanks
Louis
