I would think that a twisted sector shaft would be weakened. Not the kind of part you want breaking at 60 mph...:eek:

A mate had this happen to him, not pretty.

if the pitman arm jumped out of position you might not be able to turn the wheel to it's full lock position going right because it would be limited by the steering box and not the stops on the knuckle. You might try and look at that as well.

With the pitman arm it doesn't actually "jump out of position" (unless the nuts loose of course). The splines that the pitman are located on actually twist. But yes the lock positions in the box will be different, though usually not really greatly noticeable with the amount of twist, unless of course it's twisted really bad.
