#6 of 7 Steering loss fixed by cindyxf2 Jan 15, 2003 (12:18 pm)
Found a dealer that fixed it, simple fix. Removed lower intermediate shaft cleaned and lubricated with lubricant 8.800. Bulletin 545. Typically problem with Vin's starting with '2' (Canada). So far two weeks after fix and all is well. Fix seemed too simple for the degree of symptoms of the problem, had my doubts but now it is sure footed and doesn't seem like an accident waiting to happen.

Try R&D Truck Acc headlight override. http://www.truckautoaccessories.com/acb/Directory.cfm?st=0&st2=0&st3=0&DID=9 Then you have complete control of your headlights. I've used their 4 headlight system on 3 trucks with great success. Oh, you could just put on the parking brake, and the headlights won't come on until you release the brake. Mike L
