Steering issues???
Well I have a little bit of what sounds like several people have with the wandering issue. What I have is like 4" of play in the steering wheel. My 1990 bronco had the same issue. Anyhow the other thing I have going is when I am not moving or even just crawling along the steering wheel can be near impossible to turn. So when I have to parallel park it is a nightmare(which I dont have to do often), but it is still hard often times just trying to park if I am not moving fast enough.
Any ideas?

Front end linkage bushings, perhaps tie-rod ends, but also could be that a new Redhead Steering box will resolve it. I've seen lots of good press on the precision of Redhead's components, and several have posted that their truck feels like it has rack-and-pinion steering after installing the Redhead steering box. I know when I get to the point of needing one, that's where I'm going for it. I've been duly impressed by both the feedback and in talkign with them directly about how they work for perfect precision in mating parts together.
Here's a link. Red-Head Steering Gears, Seattle WA - Red-Head Steering Gears Home
BTW... I have nothing to do with the Redhead company or employees... just passing on good info I've received from others.

That, my friend, I cannot say since I have not yet done it myself. I'll see if I cna find the threads where this has been talked about and see if I can identify a few who have done this with the redhead unit.
