Went to get Steering clunk tsb done....

[hihosilver]

I went to the dealer to get the steering clunk tsb done and they called me that afternoon and said my truck was done and that the greasing of the shaft wasn't causing the vibration/play feel while turning. They said the front rotors were rusted and pitted and needed to be replaced. They replaced my front rotors under warranty,but used the same pads which I thought was wack. Anyway now it feels like new again no vibe. I've got 32k miles and have gone through 2 winters so far. What's up with these rotors? Has anyone else had problems with them?

I'm starting my second winter with mine and have had zero problems with the brakes. I have had the steering clunk fixed this past summer and now just waiting for my engine to knock

I took mine in for the stearing clunk and the service manager said they needed to replace the shaft. So about 3 minutes after they took it in, they brought it back out and said it was done. I doubt they changed the whole shaft in that amount of time, they prolly just greased it. And on my copy of the thing which is supposed to be a carbon of theirs, it had Changed Steering Shaft in ink, so they didnt write that on their copy! You never really know what goes on with dealers, at least not mine anyway.

Brakes and rotors on mine are still good. Almost 100K on the originals. Living in AZ probably helps with the rust though.

Actually,

Its prob faster to replace it than greese it. for if you replace it...you pull it out, put a new one in and done.

 

To greese it, you have to do all that PLUS squirt greese in there, and pump it. Its really not hard to remove that shaft.
