DonL. here are a couple pics. before lowering had 235/75/15 tires after the correct size 235/70/15. every panel is scratched and dinged. steering box scary loose. working on solving random P0300, soon will replace steering gear may try to find the "zq8" or monte ss box.

it has bad wander. new loaded upper arms new pitman arm, new lower control arms all is tight underneath. if i grab steering shaft under hood i can rotate shaft 10 degrees each side of center. i may try tightening it. but it is also leaking pretty good.

I had to replace the gauges many years ago when the speedometer needle would "stick" at various speeds. In my case though the odometer reading went UP by 70k miles.
