1997 Ford Ranger Repair Question
Asked on March 19, 2012
2 wheel drive tib suspension manual trans, steering gets loose during up shifting under acceleration
During acceleration I clutch in and I can feel the steering stability changing then I shift into the next gear and let out on the clutch and accelerate and again I feel the steering stability going thru changes then steering stability settles down and is fine. WAG is the camber is shifting with the loading and unloading. This is a daily driver no tricking that I found. As always Help is appreciated. Thanks

Thanks hmac300. Was hoping for a, I saw that before, try a worn radius arm bushing. Dug this one out of a barn, been sitting there a number of years. Reconditioned, box and front clip off, stripped all and replaced. Bushings may have rotted from sitting. Well I have to kick myself and get into that front end.
Mama won't let me putt anymore ... thanks for the memory.
Thanks Grayelve
