Hi Folks,
My 93 dodge cummings has started to wander to one side or the other. It takes constant adjustments on the steering wheel to keep the truck going straight on the road.

I know that this has been discussed here but I can't find anything. I would guess that I am not using the right search terms.

Any leads that you could give me would be appreciated.

 

A little more info about your truck would be helpful.

 

Sorry, guess if I wanted any help I should have given more information.
The truck is a 250LE 4X with a 5 speed Getrag transmission and the normal 6 cylinder that was put in those trucks.

As far as I know the truck is completely stock, I have not done any up grades.

Hope this will help.

 

I typed in "steering wander" and came up with this...

If you take a little more time searching you'll find that the number one cause of these issue is the steering coupler, which for about $8 you can easily fix. Next is the box mounting plate

 

NJT, thanks for the information. I guess I still left off some information. The truck is a first generation.

At the present I have changed the steering coupler. That is what brought the wandering problem up front where it is really noticeable now.

 

Check the steering box mount plate and make sure it is not cracked. I am not much of a 4x4 guy but I know they are known to crack.

 

Thanks.
I just read something about that in the old threads that NJTman posted a link to.
