Default judder through steering wheel after replacing rack

my steering wheels judders since i have replaced the steering rack and track rod ends on my mk4 cabby.


all bolts were tightened hard.

it seems to do it on smooth roads at relatively low speeds (havent gone above 40mph yet)

any ideas?

sometimes the suspension needs to be on the deck while you are tighting it all back up again due to the bushes etc being under no load when you do thm up
have a go lossening and then tighting them up again and see what happens
