More sloppy steering

So you can see the Lower Steering Column is rotating a fair bit before you see any kind of movement in the pitman arm.

How normal is that? That's a rebuilt gearbox, did I install a crappy one? Also, that clicking noise, is that the Lower Steering Column joint? It happened on every pull to the right. Could also be in one of the other linkages.

I guess I'll retest with the truck running.

Hrm, ran the truck and tested the steering, seemed more responsive but didn't have a helper so couldn't get eyes on the box / linkage.

If I get a chance next week I'll take another video for posterity.

I'm also going to install the cognito kit.
