I have a 1999 suburban that I resently acquired. I find the steering is very loose. It feels like a pickup truck hauling excessive weight in the back and the front end is lightened.
I had all inner & outer tie rods replaced, along with drop pitman arm, ball joints. The entire front end was inspected & alignment done.
It still feels very light in the front end, steering is too loose.
I read a thread about the steering position sensor, and how some people have felt a burst of power from the power steering pump. I haven't felt anything like that, the steering is very consistent at all speeds. I did remove the sensor, cleaned it, put it back in without any changes. Of course that could mean this sensor hasn't been working at all.
Any suggestions, advise?
