| Assuming you do still have it, I remember you talking about the lack of steering communication at high speed. I had the same problem and I replaced all kinds of tie rod ends, control arms, etc to try and get rid of it. I think that the fix is just adjusting the play out of the steering rack with the preload adjustment. Recently did this and just driving down the block there is noticeably less play. |
