as soon as i get the buggy warm the steering works then when i leave it out side to long it freezes up again i know it must be from snow melting then freezing its not doing it now im just trying to figure out if theres a way to stop this from happening again

silicone spray. that won't freeze and less likely to attract dirt, or even graphite dust used for car door locks

I first used silicone spray when I was a courier. I had a chev van and replaced the swaybar bushings with these upgraded things. and in winter they squeeked on every little bump. drove me nuts. comes in a can like wd40. good for spraying on servos too, to keep water out
