Front end rebuild

[lukeapre]

Did a 200 mile round trip highway city driving, the Bilstein took the remainder of the slop out of the steer. Very nice drive. Passing semis and people passing me doing 90 doesn’t knock me around at all. Very glad to write about it. I still have a rag joint and stock steering shaft I may swap out one of these days. Worth mentioning, I’ve also owned a 95 3/4 ton reg cab pickup and a 2003 3/4 pickup, I had zero issues with the steering for those trucks. No idea what the deal was with my suburban.

Same thing man, trying to take the slop out of my 99 2500 suburban. I replaced EVERYTHING hahahaha. Bushings ball joints super steer cognito red head gear box etc. all upgraded parts to my knowledge. No cheap crap. The biggest difference for me was the steering box itself, a close second was the cognito bracket things. Even with the red head gear box I had to adjust it about a year after I got it, then needed to be adjusted again a year or so later. Now the thing drives really well. However, even still, there’s a little bit of bump steer left. I just received the bilstien damper today. Truck now has a 4” lift and 35’s I’m hoping this bilstien takes care of that last little bit.

Curious where you got the Super Steer bracket?

It’s been a long time, sorry. I believe off of Craigslist. I want to say I read they were made for motor homes. Unfortunately not sure if they still do. Ill look around see if I can find anything.

I have one, but adding another might be twice as good! Lol, seriously, just was curious for others.
