2010 Jeep Wrangler:Front Wheels Bounce and Vehicle Out Of Control

Front wheels vibrate violently While Driving Above 50 KMPH


Its a front end collision rebuilt vehicle,bought from salvage yard with a salvage yard certificate.


There are few possibilities for this problem to arise:

1) Get complete inspection  done of any steering components that aren't new. Like any loose tie rod end, ball joint, track bar or control arm bushing will contribute to this.

2) Next get the alignment checked. If caster is too far positive it will cause this. Since it's been in a front end collision this could be an issue

3) If all the basics checked out ok. Then, the main cause of this is a weak steering damper, which mounts between the right axle tube and right drag link. 

WHAT EXACTLY STEERING DAMPER DO?
It's job is to absorb road input to the steering to prevent the exact problem you are having. The original dampers on these were very small, especially if there is a lift or over sized tires on the vehicle. If you still have problems after checking alignment and replacing any loose front end parts then I would recommend replacing the steering damper with a heavy duty aftermarket one.Please don't go for low quality cheap auto parts.They don't give required performance and don't last long.

Hope these will help.
Thanks.

Yamaha Jet Ski Boat Steering is Stiff?

Stiff Hard Steering On Boat


Yamaha  SX230 Steering is very Stiff?

In this case the Steering cable needs to be inspected.If they are dried out then has to be disconnected and lubed.

Steering cables do not have any points that you can grease them that will save them. You can only lubricate the exposed ends. 
Also another option is removing throttle assembly.
The throttle control assembly is actually really easy to remove to lube the cables and adjust the tension on the levers if need be.
If the cables are worn out,then replacing it is the only option.
First try disconnect and check that the steering head is free , if so then it is definitely the cables which can be inspected.If faulty replace,if dried out then should be fitted with grease nipple access points.

This details will help.
Thanks.
