    i have a 2016 Tacoma 4 wheel drive. This is what is wrong-
    Out of nowhere, the truck started turning to the right. No pop or anything. When we cut the wheel when it's jacked up the tire spins only on the drivers side. Maybe something with the steering rack? Inner and outer tie rods are intact and tight, working as they should. What's wrong???

    you broke something in the suspension or steering control. you have open diffs so only one wheel will spin when its jacked up

    Good luck OP. Your posts need to be more clear, lot of help here but it's easily wasted if you don't make perfect sense to those giving it.

    If stuck on trail please update with location or status. There are people in this forum that are always willing to help but DON'T post with this subject if dire help isn't needed.

    Sounds like some portion of the steering system but I haven't tore into mine so I don't know the setup or what could be wrong if the tie rods look fine.
