Too Much POWER...

in my power steering. I want it firmed up a bit. Just got an alignment at the dealership and they said that that is the way it is.

Maybe I should have asked this in the Super Duty section, but either way, you guys know everything. Is there a remedy?

Thanks

steering stabilizer ? I had one on another F-350. It's just a two way shock absorber, it slowed my steering down, or at least it made it feel as though it did. You could also get duals?

Good idea Ken, when I switched from the stocker (which leaked from day one) to a Rancho, the steering was a bit stiffer. The faster you try to move it, the more resistance.

Maybe a dual would firm it up enough for you?

I was kinda thinking that when I SEARCHED past threads. Thought that there may be a possible adjustment. Since the SS is not leaking and balljoints are good that may be only way.

I was hoping for my next steering stabilizer would go on my Woods MX Bike...DRATS
