Re: another steering question

Sounds like a broken torsion rod in the box. This is what keeps the spool valve, that directs the high preasure ps fluid in the box to assist turning. When the rod is broken, wichever way you turn the wheel gets full assist untill you manualy forc the spool valve the other way. One way to test for this, is with the engine running if you move the steering wheel one way and the wheel keeps turning by itself, the the torsion rod is broken.
