[QUOTE="crash2, post: 1504628, member: 15940"] So I went thru the steering to make sure all was good. I was planning on flipping the tie rod/ram but I want to do some research and replace the ram with one thats setup with hiems on both ends plus I want to replace all the hiems on the steering. So for now I just went thru everything. So some reason and I have no idea how but I needed to reshim the ram(de-stroke) a tad. The end of the ram with the pin was also bent and has been for a while so I replaced that and built a new pin. The old one was able to slide up/down which more than likely cause it to bend. Once a new pin was built thats tight and not able to float I also made some nylon shims that go between the ram and mount at the pin. So the front is back together and got the hydro bled out and seems to steer great.
