Does anyone have a link or pics of this Steering column lower bushing replacement I've been reading about. I've seen the link to the rock solid site. I'm trying to determine if it is something I can do on my own, so any pics or a detailed description of this process would be greatly appreciated

 

I just put mine in today. Can be done on truck but brake booster is pretty much in the way. So I opted to just remove the column since for me it really wasn't that much work.

Have only driving it a few miles steering is stiff till the bushing wears somewhat. Will post later after a few days on my findings.

 

The bushing http://www.rocksolidramtrucksteering.com/ comes with full instructions, is fairly simple and only a basic set of tools should get you by.

 

Update I applied some spray lubricant and its a 100% free moving now.

 

I'm in. just ordered one.

 

When I put the shift into gear it will sometimes make a large clunk. What could that be?

 

Maybe the rear end or drive shaft ujoints.

 

If this large "clunk" is when you go into reverse or when you don't pull the lever past "R" fast enough to get to "D", that is normal and does not hurt anything.

 

+1 i have a rebuilt tranny and its always made a clunk going into reverse...my trans still runs 100%

 

sometimes i hear a clunk when i slow down and the tranny downshifts closer to first gear or something it clunks, kinda starting to worry me
