steering problems
Well I think I opened pandoras box a little bit n the gremlins are gettin me today. I replace my steering stabilizer couple days ago and Ive notice it wasnt steering as far right as it used to, it seemed to hit the squeak spot sooner than before. So I moved the mounting bracket that goes on the tie rod a little closer to the other bracket and it will steer as far right as it used to but still squeeks when cranking it right. I also replaced a hose clamp on one of the return lines from my steering box and Im sure I let a little air in the lines. Now Ive done a pretty thorough search and have found that I need to jack the truck up and turn lock to lock 15-20million times to bleed the air out, Which should clear up alot of the squeak sound. Is there any other way to tell if my power steering pump is bad? Thanks in advance for any advice. My ride is a stock 72 k-1500 with 350
