bind after body lift, bumper trouble, radius a

[jamesyeske]

This Weekend I Installed My Three Inch Body Lift That I Really Like But Now There Is A Sticky Spot In The Steering When Turning Corners And Every Rotation The Same Spot Sticks, Havent` Really Looked Into It Yet But Wondered If Any One Else Experienced This Problem. I`m Also Having Major Trouble Getting This Front Bumper Back On Straight ( Such A Piss Off). And I Need To Replace My Radius Arm Bushings An Estimate On Time And Difficulty Would Be Great Thanx Guys.

If your referring to your 97, you cannot replace your radius arm bushings. You don't have radius arms...

i remeber something about moving the steering colum and or drilling something out to free up some slack

x2 on the steering. Check the steering column and shaft and make sure its not interfering with anything as you rotate the wheel. (It sounds like a bolt/nut or some other protrusion is hitting something as the wheel is turned)

most likely the steering extension is hitting the exhaust manifold, I personally would not drive it like this.
the front bumper may require shims in order to get it on straight with no sagging.
