DSW,Bumper sticker

["DENNIS L. PETTERSON II" <dpetters@domain.elided>]

Hi All!
 I have solved my DSW problem!A little history first,the inspector
said"replace the tie-rod end and the king pins".So I replaced them and got
massive dreaded Scout wander.I looked at the steering components and found
the bolts on the steering box were loose so I tightened them up.Then I
found that the steering box needed adjustment.The play before adjusting
the screw on top was aprox 90-100 deg. at the steering wheel.After
adjustment there is still aprox 10-15 deg. of play but I can keep the
truck in one lane now.I also set the toe-in using Steve's procedure from
the FAQ,this was simple but time consuming.Following another recommendation
I set the tire pressures at 26 psi front, and 30 psi rear.I am going to
rebuild the steering box next summer but am happy for now.
