turning issues

[85b]

I was dropping some buddies off, and I noticed my steering was kinda, well just not turning all thr way.. its at 1/2 to 1/4 turn of what it normally should be. It's an 85 bronco 2. One way is completely fine and the other is 1/2 to 1/4 turn only. Would it be the gearbox or power steering ppump?

Probably the gear box.

Turning problem

I had a similar problem on a fullsize Bronco. Check your radius arm brackets. On my vehicle, after climbing a curb, one of the arms had pushed through the back of the rusted bracket, causing the axle to run out of alignment with the frame. Steering wheel was not in the same position as before the incident. Just a thought and it's easy to see if this is the issue... I think parts are available. FSB was a relatively easy fix, Rngr and BII look to be a little more involved.

Check the rag joint and u joint on thr steering shaft.
