[Supras] Clunk in Steering Column

[cthommes at adelphia.net]

Betcha a beer they just smeared some grease on the steering bump stops.

If you're talking about a clunk/grind at full-lock over bumps, that is the cause.  There was a plastic cap on that stop from the factory that helped to cushion/lube that area which has probably worn/broken off.

One guy was from Toyota service dept and the other an independent mech. Don't ask me how they know it but I never got it fixed to confirm.
