Hello everyone,
My 1995 Rover Mini has increasingly loose steering, and I'm concerned about the safety of driving it. I've read some other posts on this forum and found that Minis driven on bumpy roads sometimes have loosened U-bolts or splines, which sounds like something that I could fix on my own.
My main problem is that I am having trouble finding a manual that can show me what exactly this U-bolt or spline is, and how I tighten it. I'm not sure that the advice given to other Mini owners on this forum for this problem would be the same for the Rover Mini or what. Is there a Rover Mini owner out there who could show me pictures or walk me through what I'm looking for, or recommend a good repairs manual? I live in Japan, so getting a manual is going to take a while (shipping things can take anywhere from two weeks to two months) and I'd like to get back behind the wheel as soon as possible.
Thank you for your time!
