Just an FYI ; no reputable shop would mess with the preloaded screw on the box. Too much liability if they get it wrong. Replacement is the normal recommendation. I would be very worried if they say they can adjust it...

They had said something like there is a mark from the factory.... We will see once i get it back i guess.

I have been following this thread for awhile now. I have to agree that if you screw up the preload on the steering box, you can be in a world of hurt. On a different note, do you know what your mpg figures were before and after the tune and turbo master?

I averaged about 18 mpg (highway/city) before. And am now at at 16-17 mpgs. Its mainly because my driving habits change a bit as the truck is a whole new animal. If I still drove it like I used to, I bet It would still be about 18.
