According to Dave Lenzi the GMC Motorhome steering box turns 3-1/3 rounds,
stop to stop. If you use a box that turns more than that, you WILL damage
your lower control arms.

THE LEGEND, Alex Ferrara, posted a photo of an A-Arm with the end, the ball
joint end, almost completely torn off from repeated impact from the
steering arm, but it was not on the photo site, so is lost forever. 😞
