Question, has anyone that owns an Ulterra or Terrova experienced it making noise turning to the right but not the left? I have watched a couple of YouTube videos that talk about the main cause and it’s a flaw internally in the steering box/casing not allowing enough room for the plastic gears to spin. I’d like to look into this but I can’t find a great video on how to break down the unit to be able to get to that box. I don’t mind breaking stuff down, but this one makes me nervous as there’s a lot going on inside.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Hey herringbone, Yep, that's a common issue with the Ulterra and Terrova. It’s usually due to a flaw in the steering box and plastic gears. Here’s a quick rundown: >Inspect the Steering Box: Look for wear or obstructions. >Watch Disassembly Videos: Search YouTube for Ulterra/Terrova repair videos. >Contact an Expert: Try reaching out to Ben McCall at SML Electronics for advice. >Manual: Check the owner's manual for disassembly instructions. If you’re unsure, it’s best to get a pro to help. Good luck! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

I appreciate the response. I’ll def give them a call if I decide to not look into it myself.
