Yeah and only 20,000 miles on it and no accidents or offroading or anything that would bend a.spindle.

What are the chances that the drop pitman arm could slip on the splined shaft on the steering box? My steering wheel is "loose" between 12 and i would 2. I cant see it slipping on the splines, maybe where its connected to the drag link or whatever its called?

Yeah it could be loose where its connected to the drag link or on the lower side. I'm having similar problems with a negative offset wheel on stock height, but not as extreme as yourself with a permanent 10* bump correction, that's scary. I hope it gets fixed soon, I was hoping to see you update this thread with a solution.

The sector shaft is probably worn out, you can try adjusting the mesh. The ruff ride may be caused by the alignment, if they didn't adjust the 4 link bars the same they could have put the axel in a bind and causing the ruff ride.
What is the specs of your setup?

Pretty sure that is my issue. I put a straight edge on the springs and the top 3-4 coils were touching, the bottom was out almost an inch. Not sure if this means anything or if they are suppose to be straight the whole way down, but I need to bring the bottom 4-link bars in quite a bit.
...its a ROUGH Country 8" 4-link. I don't have enough saved up for the lift that I want yet so I grabbed this off of a guy on this site. He said it actually rode very smooth so something isn't right haha

So I am guessing the springs are in an arc, if that's the case, the alignment is not right and you need to adjust the caster.
