[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 383784, member: 3278"] If the engine had seen service in salt or brackish and not been serviced regularly (like most engines) then you may have corrosion built up between the upper bushing and steering bracket, and not allowing grease to flow between the shaft and bushing. The dry parts with the added engine thrust would have a tendency to bind. Have seen it more than a few times down here. Usually on larger engines but they basically are designed the same in that area. [/QUOTE]
