    Steering shaft replacement help

    Mine was tilted about 75 degrees counterclockwise. Techstream wouldn't allow me to do the calibration due to faults in the system, which were either the ECU or the upper shaft. I don't think it's a particularly common failure, but nonetheless it is a failure point with an annoying yet...

    Steering shaft replacement help

    Have time set aside this Thursday to check it out. I don't think the connector will slide and still be able to clamp onto both shafts. Either the opening in the firewall will need to be enlarged, or maybe weld the connector onto the upper shaft and remove the bolt.

    Steering shaft replacement help

    I noticed it when I first drove it after install...low speed parking lot turning, definitely more effort and more steering wheel action to turn the wheels.

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    It's been broken since I bought the truck about 2 years ago. The steering wheel was turned about 60 degrees counterclockwise. It was likely a bad VGRS ECU, but could have been the intermediate shaft as well. I tried all of the recalibrations through techstream but was getting faults in the...

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Big maintenance week this week. New steering rack, front diff bushings, brakes all around. And finally swapped out the LX VGRS steering shaft for the solid LC version. No more crooked steering wheel, woohoo! This was by far the cheaper route compared to trying to fix it with a new VGRS ECU, and...
