Hahaha, Well I'm used to it by now I just keep it in town and take it easy and avoid bumps lol... It's been through 3 sets of tires and a ton of parts so idk where to go at this point SAS!!! But I ain't got the $$$ for that just yet
Well well well, Please keep your fingers crossed... I think I got rid of it!!!!!!! I have a lot of patience which isn't always a good thing... It takes a hell of a lot to piss me off, Obviously because it took me, what, 4-5 months of chasing this wobble out spending $$ replacing random partially worn parts and whatnot to lay down under the truck while it's up in the air and throw a tantrum kickin the livin $#!+ out've the tires to see that the shaft that comes out of the steering box wiggled up and down 3/16" then the 4ft pry bar moved it up and down 3/8"-1/2"!!!!!!! WOW So I figured this steering box looks just like the Gemmel type box on my 1960 but with power and the shaft out the bottom instead of the side... Yeah I had adjusted the '60s steering over the summer cuz it was sloppy and was eyballing the '01s adjustment but couldn't feel the play to think it needed it... Needless to say, I finally saw the movement and said F**k it kneeling in the snow with a box wrench and an allen wrench I loosened the jamb nut and turned the adjustment bolt clockwise to mesh the gears tighter until the pry bar couldn't move it any more then backed it off a hair cuz you don't wanna be mashing the gears just meshing... Well holy crap it's like driving a different truck!! handles like a caddie!! Haha well............. but I took it down that same "Test" road from the videos an BOOM no wobbles! So keep my truck in mind when you're prayin to the truck gods cuz I don't want to deal with the sloppy front end anymore Lol
Yeah it was bad! Haha I just got back from another ride and it seems good. Time will tell if its gone for good!
