Thanks, Speedy Jim, for posting the quick and cheerful clutch replacement procedure yesterday. Got the new cable in just fine -- the fork at the end of the old cable had ovaled out so much that it came right off the clevis pin.
Anyhoo, took the Wonderbus for a test drive, clutch is okay, maybe a bit high, but that's nothing compared with a steering problem that appeared. Can't turn the steering wheel, or the front wheels, far enough to the left to make a tight turn. The steering wheel turns fine in the right, clockwise, direction -- about 1-1/4 turns. But to the left it doesn't do more than 3/4 turn. Then it gets kinda stiff and seems to bind. I lifted the front end off the ground so I could look for binding or stuff like that, and there's nothing visible.
Maybe it got damaged when it was trailered home yesterday after the clutch cable failed? I watched the guy hook it up -- he hooked his chains to the right and left sides of the front axle main beam, which seemed okay to me, and pulled the Wonderbus up the inclined bed. Nothing appears to be tweaked, and he didn't have the chains wrapped around anything that might have gotten bent or smooshed.
I'm puzzled by this. I could use some troubleshooting ideas.
