Question about 35's and steering
Hey Everyone,
So im realizing that im still really new to these trucks. This is my first truck build and as i fget one thing accomplished i find i run into a bunch of other questions, good thing i got all yall. Anyways, My truck is a 79 F150 4wd and i finally too it out for its first spin today. Ive been noticing that its super hard to turn this beast even though i have power steering. Is it because i have 35x12.50 or is this not normal? Is there something everyone else does to make it easier? Like i said, im new to these trucks but have fallen in love real quick. Any feedback would be awesome!
Thanks,
Dave

I am running 35's and they seem to turn easy. Just make sure you are moving a little as you turn. I haven't really turned them without moving the truck. Have you checked your power steering fluid level? Have you greases everything that has a grease nipple on it??
