Spindle trailing arm / steering problem?
I thought I'd start a new thread after discovering my problem with the hard steering on my 02 viper. The spindle area at the end of the trailing arm is where the problem is. What I can't figure out is what parts are prone to go bad? The sled sat in storage for 2yrs, so other than greasing everything, what parts could be bad that would cause them not to move freely?

the bushing on the inside of the trailing arm has very close tolerance with the ski spindle, and could be corroded and causing hard steering. Spindles themselves could also be corroded, or slightly bent.
