Re: steering help

Check all your steering components ie. tie rod, drag link, etc. for any slop. My buddy has been having issues and his tie rod ends were shot along with some other stuff. He put on new ends, shocks, drag link, steering stabilizer, and finally tires. All that seemed to do the trick.

...sounds like you are gonna install that heavy sway bar sooner or later anyhow...that'll tell you if that will cure the bumpsteer, won't it...sounds like something I'd try.
