Have a steering question, I had the front end aligned and the truck drives great and straight. However when I get on it it's a hand full to control. I see street racers having the same problem on TV.

What causes this and can anything be done about it.

Thanks,

Very hard to steer when front tires are in the air!

Hello Again,

I have been chasing a tranny leak for some time now, I did have one place that was leaking and fixed it.

Now there is another slow leak, but I think it's the slip yolk not the tranny. It looks like to me oil is leaking from the rear of the yolk at the seam shown in the picture.

My question is, do I need to replace the yolk or is this a sign of another problem up stream in the tranny?

This has been a real PITA!

Thanks as always,

ls60apache · 02-17-2018, 11:29 PM

hello that a common issue with the plugs in the back of those slip yokes seeping fluid.... you can flush the inside of yoke to get it super clean with brake cleaner and with a long extention tube to put a bead of silicone in there.i have also put a bead around the outside

**66ChevyMax** · 02-18-2018, 11:54 AM

Awesome, thanks for the help!

**66ChevyMax** · 02-18-2018, 12:02 PM

Have been enjoying the truck, she has a little over 2,000 miles on her now. Never get use to the power
