Brock Higdon- Auburn, AL
2003 7.3 F250, 35's, 250,000 miles.
Been having some issues with my tow rig, which seems to have multiplied with my new 315/75R16's.
My truck has always been kind of a pain to turn the steering wheel.
I first started saying "ok-something is wrong" when I can barely get out of a parking spot. I have to keep a foot on the brake and a foot on the go pedal, giving it a little gas just to get the wheels to turn. But I was able to deal with that.
Now, when I try to stop any more than normal coming-to-a-stopsign speed, I continue to push the brake pedal but do not slow down any faster. Its gotten pretty scary. Whats even worse is trying to turn while coming to a faster-than-normal stop. The steering wheel will not move AT ALL.
I did a complete fluid flush last weekend with Mobil1 synthetic ATF fluid. That helped the steering *some*, but not much. Zero help for braking. In continuing the trend of throwing parts at it until I fix something, should I replace the pump or the hydroboost next?
