its not drink.... its no sleep, worked 5 days 12 hour nights then no sleep today because doing work on the car, and I'm about to hit the town tonight! I can sleep when I'm dead.

There is two more things I can check then, the links are the small bars linking the roll bars with suspension isnt?

A good way of checking if the electric power steering is working?

EPS warning light?

Unplug the rack and it ought to throw one and the steering ought to be even heavier.

nope no light on, but the tyres are really badly worn on the inner edge on the front would that steering geo cause heavy steering?

An incorrect geo setup will cause all sorts of problems.

Get your geo sorted and fit new tyres ASAP, then see if the problem remains...'til then we can't really say if it's the rack or not...I suspect not.

If the EPS if fooked, you'll know about it...it'll be like having a dead cow nailed to the front end.
