    95 K1500 Loud Clunk Turning Left

    Front End Refresh - Advice?

    Looking to rebuild the entire front end on my 92 C1500 because everything is shot (steering, ride quality, etc.) The steering is so bad as a matter of fact that with the truck jacked up, key unlocked, the wheel is crazy hard to turn (almost as if the tires are on the ground!) Not to mention...

    Struggling with replacing power steering pump - EVO sensor - 97 Sierra 4.3

    Wondering if anyone experienced can provide help on a power steering pump for a 97 Sierra 1500 4.3. Bought a pump that the parts store says fits the vehicle but it doesn't have the right fitting for the EVO sensor. I'm willing to bypass the sensor, but would I need to use a 96 pressure hose? Do...

    Play in Rebuilt Steering Box

    97 Suburban K1500 Redid the front suspension last winter. I replaced the steering box with a Lares rebuilt box in about June. It has a bunch of play. I could turn the steering wheel about 10* either way before the truck would turn. I could watch it at the box under the hood. The input shaft...

    Intermediate Steering Shaft and Rag Joint Replacement: 1994 Chevy C1500 (Borgeson 000936)

    Today we are going to replace the intermediate shaft on my 1994 Chevy C1500 and see it we can improve the sloppy steering that these trucks suffer from. The intermediate shaft is also known as the steering shaft. Maybe we will just call it a steering intermediate shaft? Either way, let’s just...

    Tight/Binding Steering Issue

    First time poster here...92 C1500 with the 5.0 @ 168k. Already replaced the steering box and pump with reman units (fluid was BLACK when I got the truck and pump squealing) and rag joint to eliminate a crap ton of play. There is still some slop in the wheel, but upon jacking it up and shaking...

    Power Steering Overflows Only When Turning Right

    I installed a rebuilt power steering pump and Redhead steering box, filled the reservoir, jacked up the front end, and started slowing turning the wheel from lock to lock. I realized that when even slowly turning to the right the reservoir fills up and leaks out past the cap. The faster you...

    Power issue

    I have a 1990 k1500 that has an odd issue where if you turn the steering wheel to a certain position, let’s say 11 o’clock on the wheel, all the power in the truck shuts off and if the truck is running it will also shut the truck off killing power to the fuel pump and probably everything else...

    Different Steering Pumps?

    A while back I had to swap out my steering pump and the first one that NAPA sold me was incorrect. I'm needing to replace the thing again and notice there are options, but I am unsure what the differences are. For example: Summit sells two AC Delco remanufactured pumps with part numbers 19319911...
