      @@ric-kx6br I walked away from my local job. Got into argument with the boss man about my safety. I went back OTR leasing. 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.

    Francisco how do I check my Drag Link?? because I been driving my truck for two years with the Drag link put on backwards and just found out from a mechanic? My mechanic put it back on the right way but it feels like it has play when I hold on too it and push forward is that normal?

  • @becauseyoucan2171

    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

    • @mahdeal
      @mahdeal 4 роки тому +3

      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.

      Yes, in the back of the steering box there’s a nut and flat head screw. You can access it through a small round hole in the frame rail.
