I have a 96 range rover sport. It steering wheel turns left, but wont steer to the right? You can drive straight or turn to the left, but locks and won't let you turn the wheel to the right?

:? The Range Rover Sport was not produced in 1996.

Hi

The first thing that you have to do is to have someone turning the wheel while you yourself position yourself under the car with a torchlight and look at all the mechanical links underneath. Most likely something is bend and touches an other part under the car.

It sounds like its a custom set up for NASCAR.

Sorry, couldnt resist. I agree with what Jos says, probably somthing jammed underneath. Or, maybe its a problem in the steering box?

No you don't.

it's possible that at some point the tie rod was disconnected and then reconnected without the steering wheel being at the center of its travel radius, if nothing is rubbing disconnect and re-center the steering wheel.

If disconnecting the steering column, be very aware that you could damage the spiral cassette (electrical connections to the steering wheel functions like horn, radio controls, etc.) if you rotate the steering wheel too far.

Have you recently been offroad and crushed the steering damper?
