Re: Tight and responsive steering: Another How-To! YAY
Rlith - I know you have a 95 blazer. Is the steering shaft the same on the later Blazers? I have a '99, and I have noticed the same slop. I was wondering if it would work with my Truck.
Would I need to change to the different steering box? It doesn't sound like that was too tough of a job either - it being a direct bolt in.

Re: Tight and responsive steering: Another How-To! YAY
Your steering box is adjustable. You don't need to replace it. I can email you a picture of the adjustment and you can do it your self. Takes about 20 minutes.
Let me know. c_phill@bellsouth.net |

Re: Tight and responsive steering: Another How-To! YAY
Well, after a week of driving, I can tell you that I'm happy as hell with this mod. Probably one of the best mods I've done to this truck!

Re: Tight and responsive steering: Another How-To! YAY
Do you have any concearns about the top clamp sliping off over time? It just a pressure fit with a bolt to clamp it down, right?

Re: Tight and responsive steering: Another How-To! YAY
You have a steering box adjust on your truck. You can buy one of those cherokee box, not sure it works on a 98, or you can adjust the box and achieve the same result.
