Blazer driveability

[85 K5]

The frame shop told me the frame was as good as new and it hadn't been wrecked. (frame is not cracked at the gearbox) I decided to have the pull when braking checked out. Took it to Brake Check they told me it was the power steering gear. I had one of those high/variable ratio boxes from that place in Dallas or Fort Worth (spinoff of AGR) so I changed that back to a stock box and it drives so much better, almost like a new one. It has been a long list of doing things to correct and make better, I'm not sure which took care of the problem. Probably ball joints. Been running that high ratio for a long time, before and after the ball joints so correcting one problem but had already induced another.........and on and on.......
