loss of grip on full lock?

[Justin]

Not sure if its a common problem on the Trophy as had numerous 182's before and have never had this problem.

However having just recenty bought a Trophy I have found strange happenings when manouvering on or near full lock??
No horrible noises, just the steering wheel has a mind of its own and appears to lose grip.

Any ideas?

Mine does same. For example when your doing 3 point turns (or 5 with a trophy :lol: ) feels like the tyre is slipping. It's normal with the Trophy

Very true Keith! Totally normal I would say! ;o)

Normal.
Though I think my ball joints are on the way out, sometimes get a clunk.

When my T's ball joints were worn I had a 'clunking' sound from the wheel when going over rough/damaged back roads.

Mine is on slow full lock, feels like the wheels are ready to disconnect.
