Subject: crunchy steering

Hi Alpiners,

When I was using the Alpine yesterday I noticed a crunching
sound while turning.
On further investigation I found that that noise came from
the steering relay lever on the right hand side the one with
the fulcrum pin inside.
I tried to grease it as there is a grease nipple on it but
that was to no avail.
(Luckily there is no play in the steering yet)
Now my question is can that be dismantled easily and what is
usually the problem or what gets worn.
Are there any rebuilt kits available ?

Thanks in advance
  
Thanks Bert
