check that the camber isnt screwed on your motor, i have got these mountain speed humps round my way and after 6 months the bushes were fcuked and it made the steering harder.

have you got alloy wheels on yours. I have 16's on mine and when i put the standard steelies back on it feels like a go cart with power steering :lol:

How old are your tyres?

If the tyres are getting a bit old the side walls may be breaking down which means that when you turn the steering wheel more tyre is on the road and therefore makes it harder.

Also what sort of tyres are on his? Are they over-inflated? and what sort of quality tyres are they?

But the steering on his is really light... not as light as power steering, but even so it's really light compared to mine.

I can actually palm the wheel in his car, where as mine is really stiff ... what's wrong with mine??

i've got the correct tire pressures and that, does anything on the steering need servicing or lubing?

btw my steering is really heavy, i.e when im turning fairly sharply it becomes difficult to smoothly release the sterring wheel. It tugs back the straight really sharpley.

im not a weed either if that's what ya thinking :lol:
