Replace steering knuckle studs with ARP studsWell I spent the day working on the truck. I started by installing my new ARP studs in my knuckles. Went easy enough, utilizing the two nut method to remove stock studs and install new ones.

After I got that done I moved on to replacing my 10" Bilsteins in the rear with 12"s. Should get me where I want to be with my droop in the rear.

I also went and got some abrasion guard or whatever the hell you call this stuff, and put it around all my new hydraulic lines.

Also my killer toy top showed up

So after all this I go to pull my truck out of the garage to pull my hard top off and put my new soft top on. My steering is fighting me when attempting to turn right. I don't understand what I could have done. I think it is just a coincidence that it happened when it did and I'm thinking it is an air bubble in my ram or something to do with the hydro assist. Its fighting me when the truck isn't moving. I took it for a drive and it did fine on the road turning right. I was exhausted and decided to call it a night. I'm going to try and figure it out in the morning. I took the cap off of the reservoir and I'm hoping it will bleed some more tonight.

I'm open to suggestions on what I could have done to cause this while upgrading my studs.
