It didnt fix mine, the dealer put the new steering shaft in mine a while back, well that is just one of the shafts I got at the dealer :eek:

talked to my friend who is the only tech i will let work on my truck, and most of the time i do the work in his bay just so i do the work lol ( i got a good arrangement with my dealer )... supposedly there is a new shaft design that gets rid of this problem. really hope so, or i'm gonna have to find a better solution.

i get some popping pretty good when turning left and when the right side goes over speed bumps. i thought it might be ball joints/tie rods since i saw one or 2 boots leaking greese. going to change them anyways.
also, i get a good rattle from my driver side rear when going down a bumpy road. :confused:
