Well I have driven the truck a couple times and some of that was on winding roads... It feels great but still doesnt want to come back to center... it wants to stay in the direction you last pointed it at... I think drak link ends are next...

I love the 3.25 turns lock to lock....

I also found some inexpensive 17" wheels I like....

They come in silver, black with silver lip and all black.... I want to run 35's. Anyone know the best offset/backspace? I dont want the wheels to look too tucked in....
Option A. 17x9 @ 0 offset @ 5" BS
Option B. 17x9 @ -12mm offset @ 4.5" BS
