    Default Steering Knock on VP Commodore

    G'day all

    I have a VP Commodore that steering knocks when turning right hand side full lock

    It is basically doing the same as what a front wheel drive car would when the CV's are shagged, ie: the harder right i turn the worse it knocks, or if i turn easy right and avoid u-turns, i can avoid making the steering knock

    what could be causing this?

    Sounds like it could be the rack end. The bit that comes out of the rack and connects to the tie rod end.
