leawhitehurst Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Hi to all, I joined a while back but nevergot around to introducing my self for which many apologies. I amthe proud owner of a 1944 Daimler dingo mark 2. For the last nine months havingroad registered my vehicle, and with help of a friend I have consequently beensorting out teething troubles that come with more regular use, namely a newtransfer box, replacement gear bands, refurbished carburettor, reconditioned fueltank, new piston rings and head gasket as well as a radiator re-core. J In my spare time I bulid houses. Thanks for letting me join. I do have a question although perhaps thisshould be in another post, Whilst driving on the flat and slight hills thesteering behaves perfectly but when approaching the brow of a steep hill in 4thor 3rd the steering wheelbegins to judder violently, perhaps 2-3” left to right. Once the brow of thehill is reached everything calms down again. Has any one experienced this orcan hazard a guess as to what is causing this please? There doesn't appear to be any rim rock. I’m wondering if it’sslipping on the gear bands rather than say wheel balancing as I would expectthat to occur all the time. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks. Lea.

Tony B Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Welcome in. As for the sterring problem, it appears as if it happens under heavy load, I'd check suspension for wear . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Make sure your tyres are of equal circumference, especially front and rear each side. Any drastic differences could give you steering shake as well as transmission damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
