Hey gang, it's been a while since my last post. My PC at home is still down and I will only have access to this at working hours.
I'm noticing some under steer in my truck, and just recently if I turn in a parking lot or in or out of a sharp turn I, a) almost don't make the turn completely, or b) feel binding from the front end. Almost as if the front tires were rubbing against the pavement.
When this happened (binding) I jump out to look at the tires. they both appear to be pointed in the same direction? I had a recent allignment done.
I also had a front end clunk that I had reported some time ago here, but never did find the remedy for it, and ignored it. With the front tires in the air, all seems tight, but I have a feeling the auto hubs are in relation to this all.
Also, my power steering fluid smells burnt. Same level in the reservoir, but burnt.
Any ideas? I'm feeling unsafe to drive at this point.
Thnx in advance!
