when returning home last week with trailer and mower behind truck while turning into my drive thank god the shaft from the steering box to the pitman arm snapped I had no control of my truck if it was 10 seconds sooner i was going 50 around a curve the company seems to think this is not a defect i must be wrong for thinking that you should have control of your steering they feel it is out of warranty and not their problem and i guess you should not relay on steering with a truck that has 56000 miles.after changing the steering box the mechanic noticed the drag link bows 3 to 4 inches when the wheel is turned all the way in one direction this is the nest peice of solid steel that is about to brake at this point i am afraid to drive this truck anywhere not knowing if or what is next to fall off
