Title: Power steering question
Post by: bigfosty on March 03, 2009, 01:58:03 pm

I had to replace my power steering system, pump, hoses, and then the gear box. I just drove my truck today since replacing the gear box and the steering feels loose. It drifts to the left and right and there is more play than I remember. Is there an adjustment I can make to fix this, or is it something besides the box? Thanks for any help.

Did you get a new gear box or used? Check the front end and make sure the pitman arm is tight.
