I like it better that way because if I have an issue with the truck then I can fix it without anyone's permission. A&A Express. Only 6mo experience required. I've already made a 3k paycheck on my 2nd week of work.

My drag link had slop in it, but I bought a power steering because I could hear the pump noise when turning the wheel. Not fully a waste. I'll keep the pump for later, but if like to have kept the pump cost instead

What would cause a hard pull to the right, but even wear on my steer tires?

@Livefree902 4 жыл бұрын

Same here,even after alignment

@mahdeal 4 жыл бұрын

If the alignment is done properly and still pulling to one side then your steering box most likely needs to be replaced. But before doing it check all the bushings, condition of each parts of steering assembly. It might be just one bushings or rod needed to be replaced

If you hear &feel a clunk clunk when rocking the steering wheel back & forth with the motor off then you most likely have a bad u-joint in one of the steering column shafts . Some you can replace others are welded in &you half to replace the whole shaft.
