2000 4x4 ranger - new steering issue!! yay!!
140k miles. 3.0 v6 4x4 xlt with the offroad package..
I blew hard lines to my transmission the other day and had to have the truck flatbedded.
Got the lines fixed and immediately after leaving the dealer the truck didnt feel right. took it back to the same dealer and they said oh it looks like the driver side outer tie rod and pass side inner tie rod.
....ok. so now we know joint just break themselves....
picked the truck up today and it is better, but not fixed, and scary to drive.
i hit a pot hole going 35 and the driver side shook longer than it ever has before. including the wheel. i slowed down and it stopped, it didnt continue for longer than maybe 2 or 3 seconds, but enough to make me go what in the #%^$ happened to my truck!!!
Driver side upper control arm, outer t-rod end and brakes I did myself not long after buying the truck. when they fixed the tie rods they said my lower ball joints were fine and there was no play.
im wondering if this could be struts. could the tow company have bent something? Im just at a loss. this trucK has been nothing but issues.
