I haven't seen this particular issue posted so here goes.
My '94 Limited is having issues with steering/handling. It started out very intermittent but has gotten progressively worse until I'm getting scared to drive her.
I have a couple of things going on:
1. My steering has developed a "resistance". When I try to turn the wheel I can definitely feel it fighting me. Then, sometimes, there'll be a "pop" feeling and the steering wheel will turn normally.
2. The truck has started "diving". I seriously feels like I have a wheel loose (I don't). I'll be going straight and it feels like the wheel wobbles and the truck will "dive" to the side. It's seriously difficult to correct this.
Both of these things are more noticeable after tight turns (either left or right) and seem to diminish as my speed increases.
Any ideas? It's snowing in NH today and I called out of work because I'm scared to try to drive my truck!
