Good find and thanks for the conclusion story. Wendon't often get the results of our inputs. That was the way they returned the steering extension to me so left them that way. see yaken Quote Selected

Surprising that paint would hold up over the years. Must not get scoped out that far very often?I'm pretty sure Craneman is correct.QuoteThat is Teflon bonded to the splines.see yaken Quote Selected
Re: Dead Spot in Steering (u-jonts) Reply #27 – August 27, 2019, 08:03:31 pm Drove from Eagle Nest, NM to Chama, NM a couple of days ago. Went a little out of our way to avoid the narrow streets & traffic in Taos. Went over Bobcat Pass thru Red River then Questa and on down to Taos picking up Hwy 64 which we took all the way to Chama. All small 2 lane roads with lots of hills and curves. All I can say is that Big Agnes drove like a dream. No dead spot. Could feel the steering gear kicking in with the slightest motion. I still had to do correction for the road but that's expected. I did arrive much less tired than normal. It may be a month or so before I hit an Interstate but will report back my experience when I do.With my last alignment I had them set it to factory specs. After I've driven with this for a while I may add a little bit of toe in.Highly recommend checking your steering extension if you have any kind of dead spot.see yaken Quote Selected 8 Likes
