Notchiness in 99 Epy steering
My 99 Expy 4wd has an alarming 'catching' in the steering. When you turn to the left, it 'catches' and stops untill you push the wheel harder. It only does it while in motion, not when sitting still, so I can't see anything dragging or catching underneath it. Any suggestions?

Well, I know is not the ball joints, or the tie rods. It feels up high, like in the column. I a not too familiar with reciprocatig ball systems, not enough to diagnose the defect by feel. I am just wondering if it is a common defect on these fords. I havenspected the main steering components. Its difficult becauseit doesnt exibit and problem at a standstill.

I have noticed this problem when traveling up hill at speed (65-75mph) on broad sweeping turns. I would describe it as sort of a "notch" feeling. I've had the front end checked out twice....two different dealers who say everything is ok.
I believe it might be a little looseness in the steering box.
