What steering?

Eh.. that reminds me, I still haven't reinstalled my shock tower brace from when I took it out last sept for my top end rebuild.

I got the 17's. Iwent from a 255/35/18 in the front to a 245/45/17 and the problem is fixed!!! I guess the width of the tire was it although a 245 is not that much smaller.

Thanks for y'alls help trying to figure this out....P

... Another thing is that the steering wheel feels lose. It's on properly, we checked. But there seems to be "play" with it. I can jiggle it left & right a few inches (1 or 2) and not make the car turn. This does not occur with my friends '87 and '93. Maybe that lil' bit will help the mechanical sleuths. Thanks...P

1 of 2 things is usually the cause "play" in Fox steering.
#1) Worn Rack bushings.
#2) Worn gears in the Rack.

#1 is the most common, they're a soft rubber to begin with. They do wear out over time and the environment the car has been driven in effects how fast they deteriorate. Pretty easy to check the bushing for wear, you'll need a helper to turn the steering wheel back and forth as you watch the rack from underneath. If you notice it moves side to side by quite a bit then the bushings that mount it to the K-Member are shot.

Bump Steer
Definition: The tendency of a vehicle to suddenly veer or swerve to one side when hitting a bump or dip in the road. The condition is caused by uneven toe changes that occur as a result of the steering linkage or rack not being parallel with the road surface. This causes the wheels to change toe unevenly as the suspension undergoes jounce and rebound.
