Possible to adjust steering lock?
My new puma 90 has a terrible lock ( as I'm sure they all do) and I'm curious about adjusting the stops in a little, I have 265/75s with no spacers. My 1990 200tdi has a good lock and so did my disco td5, they could both get down my lane in one whereas the puma needs 2 shunts, plus trailer reversing is very awkward in tight farmyards! is it wise to adjust them more? Will it affect the warranty?

manual says leave 20 mils from the radius arms on full lock. I took mine to 10 mil with no problem. Made a big difference.
