Steering Problems

[RMarlar]

Hey guys, I haven't posted in a while but have been reading. Always enjoy browsing through threads. Good info. . Ya'll have been a tremendous help in my quest for curing my right pull. I have just now gotten to pursuing this problem. I am convinced that the adjustable ball joints are going to be my cure. Just wanted to know the latest on those of you with this problem. I am going to look for a front end shop that will work with me on the specs and procedures offered in earlier threads. This unless there is later and greater info. or if DC is going to come to the table and make it right. I really don't have time for a long drawn out battle and will make repairs myself if necessary. Also has anyone found that they needed just one of the adjustable ball joints on one side to cure the problem. Just wondering if I could save a little money there. I am toying with the idea of trading this truck as I am tired of fighting it while driving, but would like to keep it long term if I can resolve this problem. Thanks for the good info and look foward to future correspondance.

just one for me

Finally convinced my dealer to purchase the Ingle adjustable ball joints. It only took one on the pas side to fix the problem. After install took my truck to a real alignment shop for correct alignment. The dealer does'nt care wether or not the truck steers straight just as long as it is within specs. The alignment shop adjusted it up nice and straight even after the level kit, handles real good, no more bump steer or pull. I can actually let go of the wheel on this bumpy freway and it go's straight. If the dealer or whoever works on the front end make sure to keep an eye on your axle seals, mine leaked like a faucet after the stealer did the work, had to take it back and have the seals replaced. The spindle has to be pulled everytime an adjustment is needed, so they told me. Since it took them 5days and multiple try's they damaged my seals. Well enough good luck again... ... ... .
