Guys,

I got a problem here. Dont know if you people encounter this on your ride..I`m using the u13 bluebird 94 model and i encounter this problem.Is it due to the tyre balancing as i`m riding on 18"?.Profile at 40 series rubber 215 all four.. Theoretically the faster you travel the faster your hydraulic pump running and effect your power steering.Correct me if i`m wrong..

So the steering wheel wobbles when you driving down the road at speed??, its more than likely wheel balance.

Yeah the steering wheel wobbles especially high speed..I did the wheel balancing before but that was a year back..I will try to go for wheel balance again and if it didn`t work out,will try swapping the rear wheel to the front. Hopefully will be right.. :)

Get your wheel alignment and steering rack checked.

I've had this problem a few times, it turned out to be the joints on the end of the steering rack being worn.
