Odd Toyota Steering Problem
« on: Jan 14, 2006, 07:01:32 PM »
so i got my truck all back together pretty much same set-up as i had before. now when stopped steering feels tight and normal no slop in anything. now when driving it will take a while for it to respond to turning left, turning right is fine. all bolts are tight that i can think ok. any ideas?

Are you sure it's bled well?

new bushings just rebuilt the front end and had one trip on it. steering box and pump was never messed with since we pulled the front end apart.
