So, last night, after reading this thread, I have crawled under my fender and had my wife work the steering wheel back and forth, and I cannot believe all the movement under there! I saw my steering box moving approx 1/16" back and forth, I witnessed the spring eye moving back and forth about the same amount, I saw the swaybar mount bracket, bolt AND rivet move about 1/16" as well, not to mention that the forward half of the drag link move in the socket! I can see how a total of 1/8" to 1/4" of movement can make the suburban wander! I was surprised to see the rag joint in good condition, and the rest of the steering linkage in good shape, nice and tight. I have parked it until I can get time to work on it.
