it could still be the bushes when at a standstill it is hard to find a fault , the best way i find to check bushes is place rig on level ground hand brack of go to the front corner say drivers side grab the bumber and push side to side good pushes and get it rocking you will hear any bush proplems , do it on every corner , and yes the steering uj is a good thing to check as geoff said, you can test by holding the steering colum in the engine bay and get someone to move the steering wheel

The joys of the Forestry Commission
Big Bolt replied to Swiss CHris's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
if they have right of way to there land they are only ensuring the track is clear for there machinery , yes they could of phoned ahead , but the men on the ground would not have your number , and they could of sent you a bill to clear the track of overhang , best way is place a gate on the track where the key is held by yourself , then you will know all movments . just a idea , -
im back that way sunday i will see if it is still there

Only around the corner , so stopped work and went to have a look see . And this is what i saw ,a 65/70 foot crack willow that had been dead for a few years ,he had cut a row of 20 foot lyandi down and had fire 4 feet from the stem on the hottest day of the year 03/08 the tree had started to burn in various places he had not tried to extuinguish them the high ones ok but the stump ! the tree cant be climbed nor can a lift get close . so they need to be winched over very carfully very. 2 men 1/2 day and a lot of skill i says £200 he laughs and says he is skint . 4 nice cars and a caravan in the drive . i walk away wishing him lots of luck.
