Can’t dance
Hey all.
Been driving my 1998 100 series for maybe 6 months now and i think I’ve decided I enjoy driving my 1985 60 with Napa shocks probably installed around 1990 more. It feels awful to drive.
let me clarify-
It feels sloppy, loose, like every time I face a steep-ish slope I cringe or have to turn while going up a driveway or hill. I hate driving it. Please help me figure out why it feels like this, I would love to enjoy this hundo but so far i haven’t.
Info: 240k miles. Georgia truck no rust. KYB s*** shocks PO installed. Recent brake/PS fluid drain+fill at dealership with fancy machine so I couldn’t F anything up Superpro front sway bar end link bushings. Recent alignment - like last week. No leaking that I can see from steering rack, haven’t lost any fluid since ownership.
Steering feels clunky and loose. I wouldn’t take this thing wheeling unless you offered to pay for everything that broke.
No I’m not in a position to drop $5k on suspension overhaul, but I am in a position to buy new bushings and new oem shocks to try and remedy this. The truck is in good condition and no rust underneath. My next plan of attack was to buy oem shocks ^^^ and go from there because I think the KYB are the cause of most of my woes.
sorry for wall of text. Open to suggestions/thoughts/comments/“this F****** guy.. .”’s
