Hydraulic steering noise question
Hi guys, need some help, looking at purchasing a 29 baja. It has Latham hydraulic steering. When I took it on test drive, at idle, when you turned wheel it made a noticeable whining sound and felt a little vibration like the steering was Jenkins a little bit. Has anyone experienced this and is it just a case of needing to be bled or is it a more serious issue?
The trim pumps also seam to whine when timing drives up a bit. Same issue of bleeding or worse maybe just new fluid??
Any help is appreciated

You can use different weigh oils to quiet it down some. Make sure the belts are tight and change the oil to start... then post up some pics of your girlfriend, for your bros on the board...rm
