I have a 1998 k1500 Silverado 350 engine with 4" lift, 33" tires, Dual steering stabilizers that i just had the power steering pump go out on me. I replaced it then the steering gear box crapped out a week later. It had the EVO steering setup on it and it had been twitchy for a while in slow speed cornering. I saw the kits GM put out to delete to EVO assist but read I could just use the hose off a 96 model. So I got the hose and a box off a 96. I used to have a lot of play in the steering, but now steering is tight and it goes straight down the road without much effort. My issue is not so much the highway driving , its the slow in town stuff. I'm pretty much having to use two hands while making turns. There is assist, but not much. I have no air in the system. Only thing I can think is I checked Power steering part numbers for the 98 and the 96 and they are different. Would this be the culprit? I'd hate to have to change the pump out since it's new. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
