Re: '68 Short Step....What's wrong with the steering?

Thanks i will give that a try. One of the zerks refused to take grease, so i removed it & found that the zerk is ok. The joint may be rusted or corroded so bad that grease can't get in there. It's the knuckle on the pass side from the frame to the tie rod, so it could be part of the prob. Couldn't get it on the lift today.....hoping for 2morrow.

thats all I got.
