Thanks Tazza, I'll give that a go and see how things work out. ThanksIt's possible the steering linkages were not adjusted just rite. With the cab up, you can see two bars that are two pieces with 2 bolts in each. If you loosen them and move them forward or backard it will adjust how far the steering levers can move.
Not a great description, sorry but when you see it, you'll understand.
If the linkages are worn it may allow the steering levers to bottom out on the steel plate that they go through with the boot.
