Re: Steering return to center

SEMI SOLVED,

I found a gear box from a 88 suburban on craigslist. installed it in my 89 and MAGIC. The truck steers easy and returns to center as it should.

All I can say is "never give up your original core" not for any part. most of my research has lead to understand that ALL remanufactured parts are a mix of what ever comes out of the old pile of parts. (valves,torsion bars, etc)

If I had a dana 60 i would have just bought a new gear from psc and not bothered with this headache. I was hoping for a easy fix to my problem while hunting for the 60.

My issue now is a soon as the pump warms up, it whines like crazy. Cold=quiet. At least with the pump if i buy a quality pump, it can be used in the future.

Hope some of this helped someone.
Chris
