Ive fitting coilovers and on the front the is a problem
, took it for a test run and the steering went super light it does have power steering and previously i had fitted 60mm springs so it sat at the same ride hight.

The steering is dangerously light and turns to easy to drive and feels very loose any idea's?
ive currently refitted my old 60mm springs & shocks
and it has gone back to normal could it be camber or spring rate maybe only things i can think of because it felt like the steering rack was nackerd.....
