Hey y'all, wanted a recommendation.  The steering on my Dodge just doesn't feel solid.  I have very little play in my wheel, steering box feels fine.  I haven't jacked it up to check for wheel movement but assume that either the tie rod ends are going out or it's a combo with the drag link.  

 

On to my question.  With the 99 model, is the "Y" steering Linkage version a good replacement or are there any recommendations on the "T" conversion if it's even needed.  Any links to what others have done in the past?  Thanks!

  • Thought I'd update this thread.  The issue was a bad Track Bar.  I replaced it and now the steering is perfect.  I adjusted the drag link so the wheel is right and good as new!

  • You will get better "real life" test results if you set the vehicle back onto ground for the tie rod end, center link, drag link, and track bar checks because the joints will have to do some actual wo

Ok, ball joints are fine by visual inspection and no play at 12&6, and by prying up on the wheel.  There is play at 3&9, I'm thinking the tierod ends and drag link need replaced.  There is some bump steer that needs to be corrected.

 

Do you all have a recommended seller for the parts or will any HD do?  I've heard to stay away from Moog.

You'll probably benefit from an adjustable track bar with the lift you got and in general.

Nevermind
