    Cunningham Machine Upper/Lower Steering Shafts?

    The lower shaft only goes onto the steering box one way based on the flat sides.

    Cunningham Machine Upper/Lower Steering Shafts?

    @Cunningham Machine I ordered the Cunningham lower a while back for my ‘99 K1500 Classic and it’s great, however, I’m trying to install the Cunningham upper now but I’ll need to turn steering wheel 90 degrees to insert the upper into the steering shaft at the steering wheel. Website states that...

    I'm not getting any clunking but got some slop in the upper steering column that this may resolve. Thanks for posting!

    Lower ball joints different sizes???

    Sounds very likely! I’ve sourced a stock lca at a salvage yard locally and picking up today. 97 Suburban 4x4 should be compatible right?

    Lower ball joints different sizes???

    The truck was wrecked by previous owner and other than assuming the knuckle was switched out....he's puzzled as well! :33: I just went under and checked out the LCA's and the drivers side is stamped "A 234 1" and the pass side is stamped "A 234 2".....is this an identification of some sort...

    Lower ball joints different sizes???

    So to add to the mystery here....my mechanic says that both of my LCA's are forged. So how does the passenger side take the larger ball joint(...normally for forged) and driver side take the smaller(normally for stamped)? What situation would have caused this? Thanks for all the help fellas...I...

    Lower ball joints different sizes???

    Should the difference between the forged and stamped lower control arms make a difference in steering when one of each is installed like in my situation?

    Lower ball joints different sizes???

    Yes it is strange...thanks for your response! The truck had been in an accident before I purchased it so one side could have well been swapped out. Should I replace the forged with a stamped, replace the stamped with a forged, or leave as is in your opinion?

    Lower ball joints different sizes???

    While installing the new lower ball joints on my 99' K1500 with 6" RC lift, my mechanic informed me that the passenger/driver sides are different. Meaning, the passenger side will accept the larger Moog K6509 but the driver side will only accept the smaller Moog K6477. How can this be so and has...

    Sway bar links for RC 6" lift?

    Hi guys, I'm interested in replacing the sway bar links on my 99' K1500 Classic w/ 6" lift as the bushings look like there just about shot. Do I need to buy sway bar links specifically for a 4-6" lift or will stocks be ok? If I need extended ones, any suggestions? Thanks

    Steering wheel snap-ring?

    My apologies, thought the Maintenance part had me covered on this post. Always funny how some take the time to respond but add “nothing”…‍

    Steering wheel snap-ring?

    Do you consider the snap ring an “extra” part? Thanks

    Steering wheel snap-ring?

    I used a steering wheel/harmonic balancer tool. I like this concept though! Thanks for your response!
