I’m not an expert on front suspension dynamics. I’m more of a “replace the part and take it for a front end alignment guy”. So I need suggestions on best path forward. When I bought my coach the PO had rebuilt the steering column and box and had a front in alignment just a few years prior. However the upper ball joint popped loose when I was bringing it home and so I had all new ball joints (lowers were pretty worn as well) installed. Then I had a front end alignment and in doing so my steering wheel and box are off center.
Now that I have it in the air I’m thinking of locking my wheels facing forward, disconnecting drag link from pitman arm then readjusting suspension in order to maintain alignment and return steering box/wheel to center. So would it be better to adjust the tie rod assembly’s or the drag link...or both?
Thanks
