    Ok, I've got a 2004.5, my steering is pretty loose...looking at the gear box it appears that the shaft connected to the pitman arm is pretty darn loose and wobbly in there..but it's not leaking or anything. So, my question is...I know there is an Allen key and a set nut to adjust it right? Would...

    Hey Folks, A friend of mine has a 2013 LML 3500 4x4. Over the last 3 years, we've probably changed 9 to 12 power steering hoses on his truck. All pressure hoses. About 2/3 of the time it is the hose from the box to the hydroboost. The other 1/3 of the time it's from the booster to the...

    Even when my wheels are pointing straight forward, my steering wheel is angled 10 degrees to the left. It doesn't point straight when the wheels are straight. Any ideas? Thanks

    Lately on my truck the steering has felt off by a lot, whining, hard / stiff steering and gets worse as the truck warms up, I had even cleaned up everything within the engine bay too including the driver side intercooler pipe, which is now covered in a black grimey substance behind the ps...

    The title says it all, it's broken off 3 times and no one can tell me what's causing it. This last time it actually broke the center of the pulley out, right around the p.s. pump shaft... Has anyone had this issue? Is there a fix? Is there anything I can check out? None of the other pulleys...

  14. 911 Problems Forum
    Was backing out of the driveway this morning and immediately noticed the power steering was out. Pulling back into the driveway I realized the brake boost was gone too. I suspected the belt had gone. I popped the hood to discover the belt was just peachy. I removed the power steering filler cap...
  15. Suspension&Steering
    I am gearing up to start a new project to address what has become a troublesome issue for many...hard steering, especially at idle. Large tires, incorrect scrub radius from offset wheels, heavy front end when hooked up, hydroboost demand, all steeling the thunder from the steering pump. Just...
  16. 911 Problems Forum
    02 2500 hd 4WD, making a horrible groaning noise when turning , but mostly prevalent when cold. I don't hear the noise when the vehicle is driven during the day, only first thing. Recently changed the hydroboost unit, so I thought it may have something to do with that. It's driving me crazy...
