I have some binding at one of the joints. I have the front removed from electric steering forward so not there. I think I have it narrowed down to the joint at rear of electric steering going up to firewall. When I remove that joint all moves free. When I put it back on it has hard spots every 180 degree of rotation. All the shafts are in from flush about 1/16 to 1/8. When I turn the wheel and watch the knuckles are close to touching but nothing is rubbing or hitting inside the joint. Ive talked to FFR a couple of times but we are at a loss. Is this just normal when having angles this sharp? Or do I have something cobbled up. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
