You step on the brake? the steering bars? as in tie rod and drag link? Is the TRE worn? Loose?
Dr.Maxwe001 – well i have a 15 gal compressor now and if I gett he 60  and then use the 15 as a reserve that wil give me 75 gal  thats close to 80 isnt it ?

The threaded part of the tie rod can break on those. There is a recall on certain models.

check your idler arm (passenger side of frame your draglink commects to this and the pitman arm on the other side.  The factory idler arm can wear causing the draglink to fles forward and back if it gets to bad the pin can actually snap ( ive snapped like 4 or 5 of em)

Especially on cranked tb's and larger tires it puta a lot of stress on the arm causing premature failuer. now there are truss kitts to stregnthen it and aftermarket arms that have a shorter pin and its greasable but ive snapped then as well they just lasted longer.

Hope this helps :thumbs:
