Steven,

I have seen the steer orbital fail and cause the steering to pull to one side. Jack steer axle of the ground and turn wheel until tires are straight. Start lift and slowly turn the wheel to the directions the operator stated to see if it takes off. May need to replace orbital, maybe operator? Good Luck

The hard to do we do right away. The impossible just takes a little longer.

Fact of the week

It is thought that the word gradually obtained a positive meaning in the English language where it was often used to refer to a person who was ludicrously over-dressed. The term was confused with a reference to something refined or someone who was "nicely" dressed.
