Hard hard should these be to rotate with a bolt through by hand? Trying to isolate a "shuddering" or "binding" during steering at idle under load. I have to really muscle it to move by hand.
BTW - 1990 GT Vert 5.0 T5. Just replaced entire front suspension (parts/bushings) and inner/outer rods. Broke rack loose to replace bushings but stopped and put her back together. During left steering the wheel "shudders" violantly but I can't "feel" anything in the rack from underneath. Tried bleeding PS several times and different methods. Removed outer rod at spindle and "physically" moved wheel under load and could not replicate. I tried "resisting" the rack motion but it felt smooth. Put it back together and "shudders" back. Only thing left is these ends or possibly the rack...
Thanks.
