sometimes lllllloyd i have no fuken idea what youre saying
I'll have a report tomorrow on what happened.
I have a feeling the tie rod ends could have been worn out or couldn't handle the conditions they were being put through and gave up.
Tie rod failure seems to be a common problem among 'slammed/cambered' DC5/EP3's

Hard Race inverted tie rods should remedy this and improve driving feels.

What caused the fail? We may never know.
I think it was a combination.
What I know is ;
That the nuts on the rack end were frozen.....solid..........get the heat on kunt...... (on both sides - Thank you Big Wheel) and fark knows if there's others solid nuts....
The car has a finger gap in the front (may fix today, probably won't. GG night shift life) which was no doubt a factor.
The car had 3 degrees of camber all around.
I've had the tie rod ends fitted, wheel alignment was re-done yesterday, now something needs to get shorter to get the perfect alignment..... soon enough
thanks to KY express lube and Tyre Power for being honest blokes and helping this kaffir out.
The car is a lot better - good feels, Breast feels to come.
Having fark all sleep Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and yesterday - bad feels.
Driving Gladis over the last few days has been nice though but she needs to be sold.
Now to enjoy my grandfather's 82nd birthday with him today :)
