Steering Problems

Hey guy's if your wondering I already have my problem fixed I just wanted to let everyone know what all I did to fix it. First off when I got my truck I noticed it had a bad steering problem. I thought what most people usually do tie rod ends, drag link, and Alignment job, well it didn't help. I got a new Steering box it helped a little, wasn't the big problem but needed replaced anyways because it had some slack in it. Well I was still at a loss got online and couldn't find anyone with the same problems so I started checking everything else and found the problem within 10 minutes....The "Steering Shaft" ok I found the problem now to get a new one. I called all the local auto parts stores Advance Autojunk, NAPA, and Autozone and nothing didn't even show a listing for one, so I checked the junk yards hoping and still nothing. So i did the next best thing "EBAY", found one it was a Borgeson Heavy Duty Telescoping Shaft for $225. I thought that was too much so I called around to some out of state Junk yards, couldn't find one anywhere so I ended up ordering it. I got it a few days later and it was too long so I called Borgeson and they said they were made "Cut To Fit". Well, I measured and ended up cutting off 12", put it on and I haven't had a problem yet.

Hope this helps!
