You don’t have bump steer, you have feedback

 

While we are on the topic of steering. I’ve read a ton on quickeners. Is it true they add a bit of play at the wheel?

 

Yes they all have a little bit of play

 

How much is a little? Right now my rack is clapped out and I have about an inch of side to side. I can handle a little. But what I have now drives me nuts.

 

Haven’t heard this mention but slide rack is new to me. I like what it does and understand how it beef up the steering but what I haven’t been able to figure out is the maintenance that it requires or is it burn it on and don’t worry about it. Can you chime me in on it?

one day the front of my truck will get the jd catalog for now I am just collecting parts here and there. But the slide rack may need to be done soon so I can cut up the frame at the same time doing pivots.

How are folks addressing the burn off of the paint inside the frame once you are done welding? I think I saw a flex tube with a 1/2 sphere spray nozzle. Wondering if there is a better method.

thanks

 

Interesting, guess I need to do some homework.

 

5 degrees from the quick steer

I meant the difference between Feedback and Bump Steer, but yeah I'll be poring over all the details.

 

I thought mine was bump steer for a long time as well. After talking with Jesse he explained it was just feedback from the pump not being able to keep up. I followed his advice and got the pump and I’m happy. It doesn’t eliminate all of it, but it’s a damn nice difference. I have no regrets.

 

With the stock pump when you hit something be it a bump, rock or a dip in the road with one wheel and the steering wheel wants to turn that is feedback. Feedback is felt due to the low line pressure since the oem pump doesn't make much pressure at low rpm's. Bump steer is when your wheels steer themselves during suspension compression due to the steering linkage and control arm angles being at different lengths and/or angles.

 

Thanks for the education fellas. I'm really excited for this heavy bill year to end and 2023 can rise on to some new fun for the truck. Also eyeballing those pivots for sale in the BST thread....

 

Any plans for a 3rd gen pump kit?

 

I have a question regarding the inner fenders. I'm wondering if it's worth while to get rid of the abs bullshit dealy mobob (technical term) that sits on the passenger side fender? Also if you did get rid of abs what is involved in the process? Sorry, I don't mean to be spoon fed. Anyone know of a write up on abs delete or is it pretty straightforward?

 

The kit is not listed under the 3rd gen page. I assume because it’s a different motor, it would require a different setup.

 

Shit...gonna go back and edit that...I'm wrong about the 3rd gen

 

I deleted mine to fit my UMP. It’s fairly straight forward stuff. You’ll need line, a couple y blocks and a proportioning valve. Front brakes are the port closest to the booster, rear are the furthest from.

 

What did you do with the wires that plug into the unit? I'm guessing they have something to do with the wheel speed sensors?

 

Yes we will be doing one shortly
