    Steering effort

    re: Series III The front suspension is completely refurbished. Steering box and idler operate smoothly. The steering effort at low speed or standing still or parking is excessive. Is this normal or should I look further? All turns smoothly with frontend jacked up off the ground.

    Overdrive solenoid removal

    In process of trouble shooting the OD. It was supposedly rebuilt under the previous owner but does not engage at all. The solenoid does move the lever and lines up the lever hole with the dimple in the case but while checking that, I noticed the solenoid was heating up quite a bit to the touch...
