No haven't messed with the steering just yet. Been working on the rear drive shaft lately. Had to drop the carrier bearing a little more, and was trying to save a few bucks and balance it myself. I have gotten pretty close but think I'm about to throw in the towel and take it in this week sometime.
This is my favorite body Chevy. My dad had a 98 cclb 4wd with the 6.5. Black exterior. I loved that truck. I'm trying to convince the wife to let me sell the 14 so I can buy one. Truck looks awesome man.

So played around with the go pro a bit, was curious how the front axle moves on the road. Have seen signs of the shackles moving a bit and rubbing on the frame, figured it was mostly in cornering, but there's lots of movement with every bump. Time for better bushings. Noticed a bit of axle wrap in braking also.
Yep, my shackles are doing the same thing. Have sizable gouges in the frame now.
Next on my list!
