The ram Rock solid fix did a lot good for the steering on my truck. I also put a borgeson steering shaft (can't say how much better it is than an OEM replacement, but mine had play in it). The track bars are also a problem. I replaced with a Moog problem solver and happy with it. Still have original steering box and truck tracks straight down the road.

It really not that bad of a job. I had it changed in probably 45 minutes by using a dermal with a grinder bit to cut the old stuff out.

Basically its taking up the slack so when you give the steering wheel input, the shaft doesn't move side to side before your gear box receives the input. If its got slop your constantly overcorrecting your st wheel to keep it going straight down the road. By itself its not a fix-all, but another piece of the puzzle.

Anyhow I thought it only got rid of the "clunk" sound in the column. I didn't know these trucks even had a problem with the steering shaft moving left and right. Good to know, thanks for the info!!

I don't have a good dremel, might have to get one from Harbor Freight.
