Same issue here I'm chasing down. Adjusted the rack and pinion tension spring to just where it bottomed out and it made little change. Still have slop. When I rotate the steering shaft by hand in the engine bay it seems from steering wheel to rack and pinion input shaft is 1:1. I can swear all...

It finally broke free!!!! Thank god the other side only took a couple hard whacks and moved. Decided since I've done this much work I might as well rebuild them too since they're out and don't rebound when you push the rod in. Just ordered the seal kit with 1/2 gal or Lucas oil. Thanks again...

This thing is going to kill me! Its been soaking in vinegar, I got a 8lb sledge and banging the crap out of it. 0 movement. Whoever decided to put an uncoated steel snap ring has a special place in automotive hell. Got a 4x4 with a 1" hole drilled through it for the shock to sit on and a 4"...

Popping my post cherry! Just picked up a new to me 2010 with a 6.2L. Long story short, started looking over it after I picked it up and noticed PS fluid was black. Sucked it out and filled it back up with ATF like all my other trucks. Started noticing the next day it was not very powerful...
