Slack Steering Troubleshooting
Can someone crash course me on identifying slack in the steering being the gear box vs. the shaft? I mean I know the obvious just want to make sure I am not overlooking anything.
I had new tie-rods, ball joints, and pitman arm replaced, and that took a great deal of it out, but I still have some slack, and I think that slack is what's allowing my travel trailer to wander a bit when towing.

I'm having the same issue with my 93 and I even replaced my steering box. I'm curious as to what others on here tell us. Does your truck feel like it's in 4 Low when you turn sharp like mine does? I'm not sure why it does this!!!!

My rear feeling odd I attribute to having a heavy skirted flatbed and when I replaced my leafs, I went with the lighter duty ones for a smooth ride, and with the weight of the bed the springs are compressed more than they probably should be and I've lost the stiffness back there.
