wear steering
2001 E350 7.3L PSD converted to 4X4 with an `06 F250 front wit 34" tires.
Here's the problem: With my foot on the brakes and at a full stop, the steering is very hard to turn. Like it's binding up or something.
When the brake pedal is released the power comes back to the steering. First I said it was the pump of course. Replaced the pump....same problem. This only occurs when the brake is applied firmly and sitting still. Everything is fine when the truck is in motion. No brake or steering problem at all.
I checked all bearings and links several time. If i lift the front i can move from left to right just pushing the tires, so nothing goes hard there.
Van has an vacuum pump for the brake and a hydraulic for the steering.
it does not help if i rise up the rpm´s. Absolute no different to normal rpm`s
Can anyone advise me on this issue?
All comments and ideas are welcome.

Didi, Solange wir hier unter uns sind frag ich mal so 
:
Stehen die Räder in gleicher Flucht mit den Radnaben oder stehen sie weiter außen?
Die Auflagefläche der Reifen sollte auf gleicher Höhe mit dem Drehpunkt der Naben sein.

Nein der Drehpunkt ist schon weiter außen, aber es gibt wohl einige andere die die selbe achse/Felgen drauf haben und bei denen funktioniert es. Angeblich habe ich eine 06er F250 HD Vorderachse eingebaut. Ich weiß allerdings nicht was die so für Felgen ET fahren.

Allright JWA I'll try to translate what "Gorgerunner" and I wrote, for you 
:
I:
Are the Wheels in one line with the hubs or are they further outside?
The contact surface should be in one line with the hubs.
Schluchtenflitzer:
No, the turning point is further out, but there are some who have the same axle/rim combo and it works.
Supposedly I got a '06 F250 HD front axle build in.
But I don't know what's their rims offset is, they're driving.
