Here's the rundown:

- RT 3" heavy srping lift.
- Detroit/TT
- Rockware relocation kit w/OEM D-90 damper (less than 1 year old)
- Front & Rear CV's
- 265/75's at 37 front/42.5 rear (last test pressure, have had it at 36/32 f/r

When I let off the gas at highway speeds it pulls left, when I put it on, it pulls right.

Also, steering is a bit sloppy and generally "woozy". You would think I was drunk. (honest, I am not).

Forgot, RT trailing links and radius arms. New bushings when installed in January of 2001.

How much Castor do you have?

tom, you never had this problem before? when did this start?

i also have some steering issues, and i am thinking it has to do with the messed up lift and steering geometry.

prices to pay for sitting up high.

I dunno, sort of came on slow. I didn't have the problem before...

My track rod was bent, but it has been bent back. Perhaps something is loose down there?

"the steerng damper should be renewed on an anual basis" so it says in my oct 96 issue if LROi - if the bilstien steering damper is anything like the shocks - then i'd try one of those. also i'd check the intergrity of your shocks as well

Tom,

Check your panhard rod bushings to see if there's any play. Use a pry bar to see if you can move it up/down. Also make sure every single steering componentry is tight to 100-150 ft-lb torque. This includes your front radius arms as well.

Will check all the above. Thanks, guys.
