Question
leboyd
I just beginning the R&R of the steering gear box on my 97 tahoe (I know either it's bad on the pitman arm).
I have some immediate questions.
i having difficulty getting the puller on the pitman arm/steering linkage. is there a trick? the 4x4 case is just enpough in the way.
does the bolt that holds the steering shaft on the gear box need to be completely removed or just loosened?
does the gear box just slide out from the steering shaft or should i expect a lot of tugging and pulling? (not there yet, just mentally preparing) In other words, once I disconnect the pitman arm from the steering system and the bolts holding the steering gear box on the frame, with the box just slide off the shaft (and back on)?
If i take measurements on the tie rod ends and install the replacements the same way, can i expect that the steering will be "good enough" to only drive to an alignment shop or can i expect better than that - like almost exact?
TIA!
