possible repo issue

79rustyk10 — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:04:54 GMT

OK a year ago, I traded my 74 nova to a "friend" for a few hundred bucks and a 350 and what was supposed to be a 327, but was a 305.being the good guy I am I overlooked the 305 issue because it ran really well.Now a year later I still havent been paid the cash. I keep asking but theres always some sort of excuse. I still have the title and now would happily dump the engines in the dudes yard and take my car back, just to get it all said and done with.

What say you guys?

What's in a steering column?

sheoldeblaze — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 22:18:34 GMT

So I'm still having problems with my steering, and I'm pulling out what little hair I have trying to figure it out. I'll re-cap a previous post first...

My steering wheel is not staying straight, meaning the top of the wheel is not staying in the 12 o'clock position. It will start out there, the blazer will drive straight down the road. Then I make a "hard" right turn in to a parking lot, or backing out of a parking spot,(when I say "hard" turn, I mean more turning than is required for changing lanes) and then my steering wheel stays to the right. The top of the wheel is now in the 9 o'clock position when driving straight, and if I let go of the wheel it stays straight. It also does this when I make left turns.

Here is what I have done so far: replaced upper and lower ball joints, replaced tie-rod and tie-rod endlinks, replaced draglinks, replaced draglink adjusting sleeve, replaced pit-man arm, replaced power steering gear box, checked frame for cracks, there where none, installed ORD steering brace before putting in new gear box. Used all new grade 8 bolts with lock tight, and lock nuts on gear box to frame mounts. Inspected rag joint, it is in relatively great shape, very little movement, no tears, cracks, stretching or swelling. Checked u-bolts and they were all there in good shape and properly tightened, checked leaf spring bushings, all polly and in excellent shape, checked leaf spring bolts, all tightened and properly tourqued. Checked steering wheel, bolted on properly and all nuts/bolts properly tightened. Used paint pen, and marked drag links, adjusting sleeve, tie-rods, pit man arm, gear box, to see if anything was loosening up and moving.

My steering issues were there before I checked and replaced things, and are still there now.

This morning I went to the store, steering wheel adjusted yet again to the proper 12 o'clock position. I backed out of the parking spot, turned the wheel to the right while backing up, heard a pop, nothing to loud, but definitely heard it. Started driving home, and when driving straight down the road, and the dang wheel was in the 9 o'clock position!!!!! Grrrrrrr!!! :(

Got home, checked all my paint pen marks and nothing has moved!!! All my lines are still lined up!!!

My only thought now is perhaps something inside the steering column itself? But I have never seen the insides of one? What's in there? What do you guys think? Thoughts? Suggestions? I need to figure this out or I'm gonna drive the dang thing off a cliff! At least then I would have some reason as to why the steering wheel won't stay centered! Lol

D60 KingPin Removal - brain dead question.

combatmatt — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 21:17:29 GMT

I know i know, theres TONS of ways to get these F*****g things off and searching yields 100's of posts and techniques,

-BUT-

Has anyone tried a 3/4" drive, 1000 ft/lb impact gun to break the kingpins loose on a D60? I realize its really simple etc etc but im wondering why no-one ever mentions going that route. :confused:
