2 years I've had my Blazer with no substantial problems; except the steering. I have read many forums on this Blazer issue. Where the steering is sloppy and the only solution to this problem is "changing your steering gear.' I've changed my twice and believe it, or not; the problem is still there. I've checked all the other steering components, and even changed the pitman arm along with the steering gear; as one should when replacing the steering gear. All the nuts and bolts are at the correct torque specifications. Tomorrow Sunday, April 27, 2014 I'll be getting a new steering gear box and pitman arm to do this repair again. And yes the rag joint and tulip joint are both fine, but I will be changing the steering shaft all together with a Flaming River steering shaft. Who else has this problem and is stuck to deal with it?
