PHILSS26 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 hoping you guys can help me figure this problem out. i keep hearing clunking in my front end when i hit bumps, but i put my truck on the lift and checked everything and it checked out to be perfect. ball joints are good, wheel bearings are good etc... i dont know what the hell it could be. possible its coming from the steering box? i hear that can be a common problem with these trucks.

Blown 346 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Nest net is to replace it and skip re greasing it. The part can be had for about $55 from GM parts direct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bgreenard Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 I had to replace the steering shaft, took a while to figure out what is was. No problems since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
