1983 300SD Steering Problem

[Dennis7browne]

Hi, I need some help. I just changed the tie rods and the front passanger lower ball joint. Now the steering is acting horrible. It seems that the steering wheel is going farther than it should and the turns seem to have the wheels acting bad by not turning correctly. What should I be looking at? Thje car handles fine while driving. The problem only occurs on sharp turns.

at a guess i would say you have put the tracking out, rule of thumb any time you replace a joint on the front end you should re-track the steering!!!
