G'day,
Awhile back I published a Steering Check procedure which Byron Songer
captured, polished up, and posted on the Eastern States GMC website.
When I wrote this I used the Maintenance Manual, Parts Book, and some other
references.
I did not "validate" the procedure on a GMC, it was just meant as a
guideline.
Steve Ferguson and Jim K noted that their experience showed checking the tie
rod ends as I had done might not find worn tie rod ends unless they were
severely worn.
I am planning on flying back to the USA to attend the Dixielanders Bean
Station Rally.
I would like to validate the procedure in general and see exactly what can
be determined by the procedure vis-à-vis the tie rod ends.
If anybody is having problems with their steering I would like to pull their
GMC on Al's pit and use it to validate the procedure.
Regards,
Rob M.
