I love it DW can make even the toughest guy **** his pants the first time! Lol check all ur steering knuckle for wear, replace the steering strut, & check the adjusting sleeve for thread wear! My buddy donkeypunch ended up replacing ALL his steering components, except the pitman arm which he still needs to!

i did notice the track bar has been relocated. any ideas guys?- Track bar
- Tie Rod / Drag Link
- Control Arm Bushings
- Alignment (caster) (edit- AND toe in)
- Tire ballance
- Ball Joints
- Wheel Bearings
- Stabalizer shock
have someone sit inside with the motor running and steer back and fourth while you watch your steering components cycle and look for looseness in anything, especially the track bar
