Is it turning to lock or are you just maxing out the pump. Im pretty sure my spindles don't contact the stops.like I said guys biggest issue, steering wheel turns lock to lock, but wheels on ground do not when on ground, on stands they do
This is not wrong, but if you have everything centered, then turn the adjustment on the drag link to center the steering wheel, you will be moving the steering gear off center.@Turbo4whl I am sure you know more about this than I do, I always look to your posts as The Gospel. Can you tell me what is the downside/danger to using the drag link to straighten the steering wheel? If the tires point straight ahead and the lock to lock turns of the steering wheel are the same in either direction I do not understand how this can be wrong.
I just did a test on the ground running and off, turning the steering wheel while watching to see how long it takes for the pitman arm to being to move, and it was only 1/4 turn of the steering wheel before it began to move, started at 9, with the tape on the wheel, turned right, was at 12 when it moved the pitman arm
I will for sure keep that in mind, our thought were that it's an 84 ps pump with no leaks, always lived on a 2wd with small tires, and being a 4x4 with big tires and push pull steering might be showing it's age or not enough psi now, going to replace soon ad if that doesn't completely fix it, drop drag link from you it is. I can use this pump back on the 84 c10. I was going to use my old 86 pump for core on a new one for the 86 k10I don't think the pump cares if it's 2wd, or 4wd. I've never seen a difference in a pump. I have a drop down drag link, I don't understand why people say they are junk and not to use one. It's a bent piece of tubing that holds a tie rod at each end. If you want to try it 50.00 +the ride. I can take a pick if you want to see it. It also has good tie rods on it also.
