    Im having trouble figuring out what your problem is. Is only 1 wheel spinning or is only 1 wheel steering? Please stop using the term "cut". If both tie rods are intact then its probably your steering rack thats broken, which is not going to be an easy trail fix. Where are you located? what trail? GPS coordinates? I betting we have someone near you.

    The last time we had a steering failure on the trail we had to steer the wheel manually by hand every 5 feet until we got it to the trail head where we put it on a trailer and took it home to fix it.

    Okay, how many "cut" jokes can we come up with till someone finds jimmy??? I'm off to something REALLY important. There's a guy in the third gen section that can't get his coffee pot working! *sheesh!*

    I don't know how you guys missed it, but "Cut" means steer hard in one direction or the other.

    As an example, one might say "Cut 'er to the left, Jimmy!"

    I suppose it would be more correct to say "When I jack the truck up off the ground and turn the steering wheel all the way to the stop, one of the front tires doesn't drive correctly."

    I would guess a failure of the passenger side CV shaft.

    His spelling was spot on. Seemed sober. Eaten by chubacabra is my bet.
