Checking The Steering Wheel Cause Weight


There were times when the driver does not feel comfortable when the steering becomes tight and heavy. You need to use more energy to rotate the steering wheel and difficult situation, especially when parking and when necessary a lot of turning.
One of the reasons this has happened, including the front tire pressure is too low, the alignment (alignment) is not quite right front tire, shortage or damage to oil in the steering gear box, the lack of grease on the connection rod of the steering wheel or front wheel packing and coordination of the imperfect in navigation equipment.
When confronted with this situation, first check the tire pressure front and steering rod lubrication connections. Some checks can be done easily, tongkatlah vehicle until both front wheels suspended. Then check whether the connection and screw tight navigation system.
Among the parts that should be prioritized inspection, including steering gear box, or front suspension ball joints, including the tip and base of the tie rods. To learn degradation putarlah steering to the left and right. After that putarlah steering full right, then move the steering wheel slightly to the left and right.
Navigation system has a very important role, but beware of the many variations that exist. In another situation, when driving a vehicle on a flat road, steering feel inclined to rotate to a direction. So, the steering had held firmly to prevent it continues to rotate in one direction.
This situation usually occurs because the left and right tire pressure is not the same, the diameter of the left and right rim is not the same, coordination less precise alignment of the front wheel, a spring (spring) front suspension that has been weakened, broken or bad installation, hawker front wheels are damaged or poor coordination and brake from one of the front or rear wheel friction.
When confronted with this situation, first make sure that the load is balanced enough vehicles. Then check whether both the front and rear tire pressure. If not, equate. Drive vehicle slowly on a flat road. Straighten the vehicle, taste and see how the vehicle is running. When the vehicle is likely to turn to one direction, stop the vehicle and do the next inspection.
Outside diameter of the rim left and right (for front and rear wheels) should be the same. Then check whether one of the front springs are weak or broken. In addition, it is quite possible poor brake adjustment or only one that works.
Damage to the steering system can affect the security system. Therefore, the front wheel alignment aspects of care can not be underestimated.
