Hi Dojj,

It is definitely more than just superficial on mine unfortunately: I have just reversed on full lock and it felt/sounded like I had hit a curb.

I could well have done that when I was man handling the shaft into the hub, is there anyway to check without removing the shaft completely?

What do you mean by let any of the springs out? When I was pulling the shaft out of the hub and when I was putting it back in; the hub was connected to the strut which still had the spring on it and was loosely bolted into the turret from the top 3 bolts.

Thanks for you help
