Discussion:
loose steering

I have an old towmotor that has no data plates on it. The steering is very loose (turns more than 360 degrees freely) I want to replace the steering gear but the repair guy is telling me that the problem is in the rear links. Does this make sense?

Fact of the week
In the 13th century, the word "nice" had a negative connotation, meaning "ignorant" or "foolish". 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.
