Well fellows been gone a while but haven't left for good:hands:.. Anyway, i need some advice as far as what should i upgrade in front suspention. I changed inner and outter tie rods(Moog), just bought pitman arm(Moog) and about to order idler arm(Moog) oh!, yeah also ordered Control Arm Bushings, Steering stabalizer.. I'm doing all this cause i have 117k and there's play on the damn steering wheel.. So before i go blowing 3-400 bucks on a gear box i wanna do the cheapest parts first so what else fellows???:Frustrated::banghead:..

You are on the right track. Are all those parts installed and the steering is still bad? Gearbox may be the problem though.

I did exactly what you did and ended up being the steering box but I must say after I replaced everything my trucks steering is tighter than a nun's ass

That's good to hear that my steering wheel will be like the factory cause, it's an awful feeling, at first.. Then you get use to it.. Just one thing i got ask, if i go over a water puddle an it usually tries to pull right, is that tires getting worn out or what???

BTW: I wasn't able to do Idler arm and Idler arm bracket cause i went and bought those parts at pepboys parts w/ lifetime warranty but they weren't moog so i just ordered today all Moog. Ain't gonna cheat Hoe hahaha!

unknown at this time.
sounds kinda like some minor hydroplaning and vehicle will drift in path of least resistance. if it goes right I would say something on the left is slipping.
