wandering around

[f.boyle]

Hey does the stearing in any of your 1st gen trucks suck?I might need a Borgenson steering shaft but my shocks are deffinitely shot would that make er' wander?? I tried titening up the steering box but that only worked for a few days. I would like to get it alined(sp?) but I'm getting to much other stuff I got the tires balanced that realy helped! I'm getting 19. 5's. so naturaly I want the longest wear out of them! Nothing seems to be wearing funny(funny-odd, not funny-ha-ha) What do I do????????????:{

The shaft goes bad at the steering box. Just grab it and see if it moves. If its tight, it is something else.

tight???

How tight is tight It wiggles probbly 1/8-1/4 rotation:{ Does that require $200 for borgenson:{

what usually wears out is the joint on the end of the steering shaft right before the steering box. it is a box shaped joint that is about 1 inch wide by about 2 inches long grasp it while someone turns the steering wheel back and forth if there is play in that it could be much of your problem, you can fix this 2 ways the best way is go with the borgeson shaft which runs about 2 bills or go to the dodge dealer and get what is called a shaft package it is a rebuild kit that rebuilds the box shaped joint it cost only about 4 bucks, that is the way i fixed mine and now i am good for another 100k miles

I had the same problem but I think I had more play than you I just got the rebuild kit. I comes with some little "shoes" that wear and some little pins ,,,,Its really simple you'll see. The best part is it feels tight again and you only spend 4or5 bucks.
